This blog is a space where Room 3 can share what we have been doing in class with our friends and family from all over the world. Classroom news and reminders will also be posted here so keep checking for updates. Please feel free to leave comments on our posts throughout the year as it is always motivating for us to know that people have been following all of our hard work.

Static Electricity - Inquiry
You will need:
a pen, a piece of tissue, a jersey
Method
Take a pen. Rub it on a jersey or through your hair ten times. Use the pen to pick up the piece of tissue paper.
Result
The tissue paper should 'stick' to the pen for a short amount of time. This is static electricity.

We did some science in Room 3 with tissue paper and a red pen. We combed the red pen through our hair. We put the red pen on the tissue paper. Then we lifted the tissue paper with the pen. Then it fell down because it lost energy.
