We made switches to help a light bulb turn on. We learned that many metals conduct electricity. We made contraptions where tin foil touches tin foil conected to alligator clips connected to a Light bulb and battery to make it turn on. We had to make three switches. Then we had to use those switches for a card game.

One switch I made was made out of small pieces of cardboard, as popsicle stick, a close-pin, and tin-foil. I glued the pieces together so the to wood piece of the close pin is covered in tinfoil. The tip of the popsicle stick it right u bone the close-pin andit is also covered in tin-foil. When you open the close pin the tin-foil touches making the light bulb turn on. Another one I made was so simple a 5 year old can make it. I took to squares of cardboard, tinfoil, and pom-poms (for decoration). I glued the tin-foil to each separate piece of cardboard and then glued the tin-foil covered cardboard together then pom-poms aroundthe edges. You just have to punch them together and BAM! LIGHT BULB!!! My third one was a little more complicated you have to punch down a piece of tin-foil to another piece of tin-foil. This one took longer than the other even though it sounds very simple.
