Loop wire game

PURPOSE:
This is a simple game to play and have fun and learn about circuits and conductors and non-conductors.
HYPOTHESIS:
Even if the circuit may appear closed with a non-conductor making it look like a complete circuit , the circuit is still open.

MATERIALS:
  simple craft/aluminium/copper wire(conductor)
 small craft logs or wood pieces 
battery
lamp or buzzer
 wooden board

INSTRUCTIONS:
1.Cut the wire into two parts one long and one short.
2.Take one end of the wire and insert it through a wood craft piece and fasten the wooden piece/log on the wooden board.
3. Use the remaining wire to make a loop bog enough to go through the wood log piece and insert the loop into and around the first wire.
4. bend the first wire into multiple bend like a wave and repeat step 2 with the other end.
5. Use the short wire loop and insert it through a another log. 
6. The other end of the wire has to be connected to a conductor wire for the circuit. 
7. Connect  one of the wave bend wire through the bottom part of the board to the one end of the lamp or buzzer.
8. Now connect the  loop log wire to one end of the battery.
9. Connect the other end of the battery or the buzzer.

RESULTS:
Try to play the game by taking the loop from one end to other end without turning the light or buzzer on.
 



CONCLUSION:
A steady hand can keep the circuit open and not trigger any light or sound :)
