Mini Motors Explanation?
Yesterday, for science, we followed up on previous explanations about electricity and made a mini motor with LEDs! I asked you to try and figure out yourself how it worked. Some parts of the explanation are complicated, but I only want you to get the basic idea. See if you can figure it out with your peers in class today and then we will discuss.
