How does this work?

Does it manually work?  Do I need to push it?

Does it need a battery?  It appears to have a motor, but does it?  Is this why there is a battery and wires on my desk?

Is mine one the the ones that got broken coming in?

I think I’ve figured out the front, because of what appears to be the bumper?

While typing, I saw the rubber band pop…

When I pull it by the string, now available from the rubber band popping, it’s easier.

Now I have a charged plastic bag and pieces of tissue on my desk.  Why?

Am I energy or am I being energized?  If so, how?              

Note:  Carolina Supply:  See-through batteries

Code:  Home / Building Wiring…see diagram in written notes.

These are the notes I posted during the lesson, when not engaged in an activity.  Good activities for students of all ages.  I would love to have my friends try this, at a party, just to see how long it would be for all of us to be succesful.

This lesson allowed us to be the stduents, which as teachers we do not often get to do.  That's why these Summer sessions are appreciated.  It 's great to have professional fun.  Thanks.
