Electromagnet- Science

Key Words: Coils,magnetizes, nail, circuit , releases paper clips, electromagnet, magnet
Electromagnet

QUESTION- What did you learn about this experiment?
You can make something thats not a magnet into a magnet. You can also make a nail into a magnet by wrapping wire around the nail (it can also be called coils) and attaching the ends of the wire to the battery holder and make a circuit.
The more coils you do around the nail the more paper clips it picks up. If you move the wire on and off the battery (or battery holder) it can release the paper clips, and pick them up again.

QUESTION- How does what you learned apply to a pinball machine?
If you want you can make a little joke and have an electromagnet or a real magnet at the top of the machine and when the steel ball goes up when you launch it stays there for like 5-10 seconds and they think it’s broke they remove their hands off the machine and the ball drops and they lose because the steel ball falls in the whole by the flippers.

Elecric Circuit

Key Words: source + load + path + switch + circuit + conductor
Electric Circuit

Electricity can only travel through certain materials
Electricity can’t travel through foam or paper
Electricity can only travel through metal,rubber, and copper objects
The circuit is an very important piece of information that you need to know about electricity
Electricity can create heat

QUESTION- How does what you learned apply to a pinball machine?

When the ball drops in the good or bad holes on a pinball machine, when it does we should have a more than half of the circuit finished and when the ball drops in, let’s say the good one it will light up in a different color than the bad one and will light up and spell: You are a Winner!!!!!! or if it’s the bad one then it could say Game Over!!!, or somthing.
Maybe we can some how add sound some how to if we wanted to.

QUESTION- What did you learn from the experiment?

The light bulb has two ends, base and a tip. You have to connect the two wires to both ends of the bulb. That the battery has two ends positive end and negative end and it has to be a certain way to make the bulb light up. You need a Load= light bulb, source= battery, path= wire, switch= opened and closed circuit, conductor= wire (yes) plastic spoon (no), and a circuit= circle, to make a bulb light up. You out the source in the battery holder and connect the two paths to the battery holder, then connect the end of the paths to the switch, then screw in the load and there it is, it should light up then.

Realistic fiction

On a nice early summer morning I was at my house in Ohio laying in my bed when my older and younger brother came into my room, “oohh” I yond loudly as I stretched. I sat up and there right in front of my face was a big fat black spider like an inch from my face! I started screaming and smacking the spider waving my hands were the spider was. I finally stopped when I heard my brothers Josh and Jonah laughing! “ Stop it’s not funny” I yelled
“ you’re right it’s hilarious”! Laughed Josh. Everyone always place tricks on me because I am scared of the dark,bats,spiders, and being alone even my best friend Hope plays tricks on me.
After my brothers were done laughing at me they did what they call (secret) handshake.
“ Were leaving hiri up boys” mom said. There leaving to New York for business.
“ Wait” I yelled I ran down the stairs into the kitchen
“ bye love you guys have fun in New York presenting”
“ we will love you to” they said back to me as they hugged me.
“ Bye Josh bye Jonah. Have fun in Cedar Point with Parker and Caden.”
“ Bye Jordyn” said Josh.
“ Peace” yelled Jonah.
“ O mom can I call Hope now”?
“ Sure” said mom running out the door.
“ Hey Hope ready to come over now”?
“ Sure on my way” said Hope on the other line.
KNOCK KNOCK! I ran to the window to make ensure it was her. It was. I opened the door “Hey Jordyn I am here” said 12 year old Hope Harrison.
We went to the living room and watch tv and laughed and talked for about 35 minutes. “Hey you wanna go for a walk in the woods”? I asked
“ why” Hope wondered
“ I don’t know just for a little bit”
“ok but I have to be home by 10 or 11” said Hope.
“ Alright lets go!” I said.
We started walking when I just had a weird feeling that we should go back, but I just shook it off. We were walking for about 15 20 minutes when Hope asked “ Hey you wanna start heading back it’s getting cold and creepy”
“ok lets go” we started walking when I didn’t hear Hope any more I looked around and started screaming HOPE HOPE!!!! No one answered, then Hope came jumping out at me, I heard Hope laughing “HAHAHAHA”
“It’s not funny” I said firmly trying to keep my serious face on. But she didn’t listen she just kept laughing. Everyone always plays tricks on me. She was laughing so hard I think she was crying she thought it was so funny. I started walking away but she caught up. I had no idea where we were but I didn’t say anything for a while until Hope asked “Are we there yet I am hungry”
Thats when I had to spill It. But I said it in the softest voice. “Hope I don’t know where we are I think were lost
“ Funny” She said with A grin
“I’m not joking” I said a little scared. WHAT!!!! She yelled so hard that leaves fell on her head, I was just thinking please get me out of this situation I love Hope as a friend but right now I don’t want to be by her.

Down in Spider Cave
Day 1 in the forest

I was cold, scared, hungry and wanted to go home but at least I was still with Hope I thought. We started walking in silence until we found a little cavish placed and we stepped inside and on are way in when I heard Hope yell “OWWWWW!!!” I turned around faster than she could finish yelling it, she was holding her leg and saying
“ ow my ankle ow ow ow” “what happened” I asked
“I got bit by something” She said holding her ankle and pinching her face.
I looked around and saw a weird looking gross spider that had a black body and green spots. I picked up a rock and scared it off. Hope had a purple head band on and I had a small water bottle with less than half of water in it, I took off the lid and Hopes head band I poured water on her bit and and put her head band tight around it. I thought it was poisonous but she just passed out for about an hour. When she woke up her ankle had a reddish rash on it. “Jordyn a-a-are you here” Hop asked scared looking around. I was behind her “Yes I’m here” I said in a creepy voice”JORDYN!!”
“ What” I snapped.
“ O you scared me” she said with relief.
“I know” I said with a grin.
“Come on it’s getting dark lets use are sweatshirt as pillows and go to bed”. “Ok” said Hope with a yon.
“Good night” I said sleepy.
“Good night see you in the morning” she said right before she fell fast asleep.

That night I think I only got like and hour of sleep. I was so scared I would never find my way out. I got up and I went to the edge of the cave with only moon light to see. It was a beautiful night. I saw a shooting star and wished so hard I really believed it would work, even though I don’t wish on shooting stars ever and don’t really believe. But that night I did. “Good night” I whispered quietly to Hope being back to back with her. Even though she was already asleep.
I fell asleep a little while after that.

Lost Out of Sight
Day 2 in forest

I woke up and thought I was at house and said in a sleepy voice “mom it’s summer why are you waking me up so early”? “Mom”?
“O right I am not home”. A tear rolled down my face and I started weeping. I grabbed my coat and whipped my face so Hope wouldn’t know was crying. Hope rolled over and slowly opened her eyes and grumbled “why are you up so early”?
“I don’t know I just couldn’t really sleep so I just got up”
“O” Hope said looking and her toes.
“Ok time to get up” I said softly
“I don’t want to” she groaned.
“Get up” I started to rush her.
“I’m up” she snapped. Thats when I knew it was going to be a looooong day.
We got up and my belly was rumbling so I knew we needed to eat. But I was too focused on water I didn’t think of food. We were walking for like 20 minutes when I heard falling water crashing on the the surface of the lake. “WATER” I finally yelled. I ran to where I heard it and there it was right before my eyes. I guess I didn’t care if it was dirty I just filled my mouth to the top. Hope was walking like she was about to fall a sleep. I yelled to Hope “theres water come on”.
She came faster than ever. It’s like she just popped back to life. She ran to the fall and just started to splash her face in it!
Now we needed food. We talked about it we decided that it would be more and quicker if we split up so we did. “Be safe and meet back in 20 minutes right here ok” I said wrapping my arms around her. “I will you be safe to”.
“Alright, i’ll go by the waterfall you go more in the forest”
“ok bye see you in 20 minutes”
“bye” I said staring back at her.
I was at the fall and I was trying to catch fish. I saw a stick that was underneath a bush it was quite long. I picked it up and put a berry thing on it. I was waiting for about 10-15 minutes when surprisingly I felt a bit. I pulled the stick up and yelled “I got one! I got one!” I ran back to where me and Hope were supposed to meet but no one was there. I looked around and heard nothing at all.
I yelled “Hope if you’re hiding it’s not funny”. “Hope Hope” my voice got softer and softer. Than I said one last time “Hope” but nothing was there. No thing or someone made a sound. I was all alone.
My face sank my stomach dropped. I had that feeling like when you’re on the biggest roller coaster in the park and you go strait down. I was alone all alone. I picked a way to go and I did. I decided to go by the fall so I could know where water is. I grabbed my fish and headed to the other side of the fall.
Once I got there I looked around for shelter so I wouldn’t be out in the night. It started to get darker and darker. I couldn’t find a cave I couldn’t go in a tree because I would roll right out, so I decided to make a tepi. I gathered some long thicke sticks and leaned them against a big tall wide tree. Than I used some smaller sticks and leaned them up against the bigger sticks. I put the small fish by the trunk of the tree. Now I couldn’t see any more it was too dark. I quickly made a little opening and scooted inside it. I laid down my first layer of coats and used it as a pillow and snuggled up and fell fast asleep with in 10 minutes.

Hope’s side

36 minutes before Jordyn’s………………………

“Jordyn sorry it took so long but I gathered some ber…..
I didn’t even get to finish before I noticed Jordyn wasn’t there. I went to the fall where she was but she wasn’t there.
I started walking to find shelter I couldn’t find any so I climbed a tree. I had one of those survival necklaces on that Jordyn and I picked out when we went to the mall together. I climbed to a good thicke branch and sat there. I took my necklace off un braided it and tied it around my legs so I wouldn’t fall off in the night. It got so dark I couldn’t see any more. I closed my eyes and fell right to sleep.

I see a Bear
Day 3 in forest

It is 9:43 a.m.
“MMMMM” I moaned when I stretched. What a day I said. I sat up and grumbled “I am starving”. I looked over at that little fish I caught last night and thought; should I? “Yes!”
I go up out of my tipi thing, I grabbed dried up leaves,sticks,dried pine needle,and some rock. I made a little circle with the rocks laid sticks to make a little fort I guess. Then I forgot I had mackes in my pocket and I took them out and I grabbed one and lite it and stuck it under the sticks and a baby fire was born. I grabbed 6 stick and made a place to rest my fish over the fire.

2 hours and “50” later
“Aaahhh” all done I said like a just got into a hot tub. Now it was 12:43, I was looking for some berries when I heard a Crack. CRACK CRACK CRACK. It started to come closer and closer.

I Sprinted as fast as I could until my legs started to burn. I’ve been looking back until I ran into some thing quit harry. I was laying on the ground and all I saw was a giant bear hovering over me. All I could think is to stay there and try to stay calm.
I played died for I think like 15 minutes but it felt like an hour. But the bear finally left. I stood up and just stood there thinking and shaking. I looked at my watch and I was 3:33 I went back to my tipi thing and layed there inside it. Time past while I was laying there thinking and thinking will I ever get out? Will I ever see Hope? I looked at my watch it was 5:48 “mmmmm” I puffed. I layed there and some how fell right into a deep sleep.

Are We Out?
Day 4 in forest

“Ahhhhhhh” I yond loudly I sat up and stretched and got out and stood up. “I am hungry” I said kinda grumpy. I looked around and saw in the distance some berries. I ran that way I looked closely at them and remembered on a field trip of our class there are some berries called Autumn Olive and they are edible. I picked a whole bunch and shoved them in my mouth I made a sour face because they also dry your mouth out a little but they are not that bad and there are food at least. I took a bunch and started walking around when I got tired and sat under a tree and someone fell on me! “eeeeee” I yelled in a high screaming voice. It was Hope! “Hope is that you”? I asked
“Yes, O I missed you so much”!!!
“Me too”! I said close to a tear.
“I know I missed you to” Hope said with tears and a smile.
“Where have you been”? I asked questioningly “I don’t really know but “I will tell you on the way out”.
“What”
I found the way out but I didn’t want to leave without you. Now that’s a real friend I thought. “ok” I said firmly “Let’s go” .

Were Out!

I ran out of the woods with Hope trying to keep up next to me I started to cry when me and Hope hit the edge of the woods. I ran right into my mom and dads arms. There were cops new reporters neighbors everybody. “I missed you guys, and I know you were scared but why did you leave New York for this”? I asked hugging my parents. “I would leave any were for my daughter, my dad said with loving tears. Then Josh and Jonah came running in and surprisingly hugged me “why are you here”? I asked “because we were worried” Jonah said. “And if we didn’t have you who else would we scare or bug” said Josh with a smile.
I ran to Hope and hugged her and whispered in her ear “I am so happy you are with me”! I said with joy.
My family and Hope’s all came around “we learned to always ask and know where we are going anywhere Especially in the woods”!
We went home I told my parents what happened and how it happened. They said they were proud of me to know how to survive but they also said to be more careful where I go. I went to the bathroom to take a shower got my pyjamas on and went to bed. I never had my bed feel so comfy.

I will never forget the time me and Hope were in the woods.
