Students learn about electrostatic charges by making sparks. Students experiment with static and learn about negative and positive charges. This activity demonstrates induction and the attraction and repulsion of like and unlike static charges. Students use solar cells and a light source to learn about solar energy. Demonstrate static electricity with a balloon.
