Day 130

(IWB - 8-2 notes)

I introduced the topic of static electricity by discussing section 8-2 notes.  I linked to an online simulator of static electricity and used a flipchart to distinguish between conductors and insulators.  We watched a http://www.brainpop.com/ video on static electricity and took the quiz that followed.  We ended class by using a Van de Graaff generator to demonstrate how static electricity can be created, discharged, and conducted.

No homework was assigned, and the quiz on Ohm's Law will be on Monday, March 26th.
