The Gr. 5's
participated in Scientist in School yesterday and today. Ms. Law's class had a
lot of fun and learned a great deal of science in the various engaging activities. Students discovered where energy comes from, its different forms and how it can be
transferred or transformed.
Students also identified energy stored in household
objects and discovered that the human body is a good conductor of electricity.
Using the Energy Stick, they formed a human chain of electricity! They held hands and used their bodies to complete the circuit that activated the Energy
Stick (it lit up and buzzed).
Gr. 5's also explored how energy may be conserved energy and the environment protected by simply using energy efficient light bulbs, adding insulation to buildings,and using green energy (solar, hydro, wind).
