Tech Post #1:Atoms (and Jewelry)

In class for like last week we have been learning about atoms! An atom consists of a central nucleus that is usually surrounded by one or more electrons. Each electron is negatively charged. The nucleus is positively charged, and contains one or more relatively heavy particles known as protons and neutrons. A proton is positively charged. We also did a experiment with a spiral wire, aluminum foil a glass and cloth and a tube. We rubbed the cloth and tube and put it near the spiral wire and it was supposed to move the foil. But it didn’t because it was humid that day. But we realized that if you rub the cloth and tube together and put it above your head it makes your hair stick up!

Today in Tech we are making wired jewelry for someone else. I am doing for my mom and I am making a wave! Today we will make the shape of what we want this wire and get to use tool to perfect it another day!
