Connor, Ella and I decided to create an electromagnet using a coil of copper wire and a nail. We got the copper wire and wound it around the nail, then we created a circuit and connected it up to the power pack. We made sure we connected the wires to each end of the copper wire. That then magnetised the nail to make it magnetic. I could pick up things like paperclips and other things that were magnetic.
Positive
The positives were that we all worked well as a group and we learnt how to create an electromagnetic.
Negatives
The negatives were that we had to change our plan from our first option because we couldn't get it to work and that made us less time to complete our project
