Learning Intentions: I can test a variety of materials using direct current circuits to test for conductivity.
In Science, the grade 6s have been busy learning about electricity this term. One of our questions this week was which materials conduct electricity? We tested out different materials using MaKey MaKeys. With just a circuit board, alligator clips, and a USB cable to connect to your computer, we were able to transform any object that can conduct electricity into a "key" for our computer. This was a really inventive, creative, and FUN way to investigate materials that would work. One group decided to use themselves to create a human piano! Learning Intentions: I can test a variety of materials using direct current circuits to test for conductivity. For more ideas on how you could use the MaKey MaKey, check out this video!
