Today...

Today at Enrich we all played a game of chess for about half an hour.  After chess I went straight into my science group with Alana.  We made light bulbs out of:
-  A pie tin
- A jam jar
- Wire
- Alligator clips
- Pencil lead
- Half a toilet roll
- A spring out of a pen
- D sized batteries

You needed 8 batteries - you connected the alligator clips to the batteries, then the other head of the alligator clips held the pencil lead in place.  You could only hold the alligator clips onto the battery for up to 10 seconds because it would blow the pencil lead.

Our group (Hannah H, India and Katie) had success!
