This Van de Graaff generator will allow students to experience electricity themselves. It will inspire them to experiment with what can be done with electricity. Mini lightening bolts can be shockingly fun.
Students may asked to explain why a stack of aluminum pie plates will suddenly fly apart when set upon the Van de Graaff device. This task may be done at the first demonstration and then re-examined after detailed study of static electricity.
From this display of static electricity students' interest may be moved onto electrical currents for further investigations into our electrical world. Students might even develop concepts relating electricity to the atomic world.
