2S - Materials

Today we studied some materials. We tested them to find out if they were conductors or insulators. Here are our initial results.

Sink conductor

Paper insulator

Book insulator

Nathan insulator

Scissors conductor

Bolt conductor

Money tin (inside) conductor

Money tin (outside) insulator

After testing different materials we came up with some statements about what made a conductor:

We think silver things conductor

We think metal conducts

We think strong things conduct

Finally we tested these ideas including finding out that we actually conducted too.
