Use a balloon to lift small confetti paper off a table.
Bring the charged ruler near one edge of the paper (but do not touch it). The paper will begin to spin towards the ruler. 4. Scientific Explanation (Why it works)
Push the unsharpened end of the pencil into the Blu-tack, standing it upright on a flat, stable surface.
Scientific Investigation: Static Electricity Spinning Paper Experiment 1. Introduction and Objective
Add a for tracking how long the charge lasts based on different materials (plastic vs. vinyl). Add safety tips regarding static shock. Suggest a discussion guide for students. Let me know what you'd like to add! Six Activities with Static Electricity
Cut tissue paper into butterfly shapes and make them "fly" off the table.
