Check out our magnetism & electricity projects! Magnet Investigation Prezi Magnet Investigation Prezi

The students of Class 401 will create educational posters that demonstrate how the colonies were both “attracted” and “repelled” by Britain during the 1700’s and the New Nation was formed and consistently improved over time. You are a guest lecturer who has been invited to speak to the members of the New York Historical Society. Through this project students will investigate how magnetism is a th at may attract or repel certain materials, and how these conflicting forces are mirrored in the relationship between the US and England from the Colonial Period leading up to the Revolutionary War. Students will see the attraction (dependence) and how it changes to repulsion and desire for and finally won-freedom (independence). This then led to the formation of a new government through a series of steps, all necessary to complete the “circuit”. As the new nation develops they will discover that this trend continues even within this new society as some groups are included while others are excluded, which “opens” and “closes” the circuit.
