Do All Metals Conduct?

 

This morning we were learning about conductors and whether all metals conduct the same. We tested this by getting a metal wire and joining it to a light-bulb.  We then used a strip of paper which had numbers from 1 – 10 and we held it above the bulb to see how bright it was.  We used the pieces of paper to see if the light is brighter or darker. We found that a copper wire was the best metal.
