What is the north and south pole or positive and negative?
200
Materials that do not allow electricity to travel through.
What is an insulator?
200
This is the very first step of the Engineering Design Process.
What is 'ask'?
200
When electricity is able to flow through a circuit.
What is a closed circuit?
200
This was used as a source of energy in our investigations.

This part of the lightbulb is what gives off light after it is heated by electric energy.
What is a filament?
400
The strength of the magnets become this as more space is placed between them.
What is weaker?
400
The pattern you saw in the way the number of winds affect the strength of the electromagnet.
What is more winds equals stronger electromagnet?
400
Emily used this step when she realized that the light would not glow and changed the wiring so that both the buzzer and light worked.
What is 'improve'?
400
This is created when non-magnetic objects become magnetic through power of electricity.
What is an electromagnet?
400
This steel object was used to create electromagnets.
