Seo hiad Rang a 5 agus iad i mbun Conair Leictreonach sa seomra ranga! Bhíodar ag aimsiú ábhar atá seoltach leis na Makey Makey. Tar éis fáil amach go raibh píosaí ón gcluiche fichille, síolta, leitís, bonn Gaeilgeoir na Seachtaine, spúnóga seoltach chruthaíodar ceolfhoireann ag úsáid Scratch. Bhí an spraoi acu ag cruthú an phianó déanta as daoine toisc go bhfuil daoine seoltach!

Rang a 5 made electricity circuits in the classroom!. They found conductive materials with the Makey Makey. After finding out that chess pieces, seeds, lettuce, medals & spoons are conductors, they created an orchestra using Scratch. They has great fun creating their human piano as humans are also conductors!

They are investigating as to whether leftover vegetables from the kitchen can be regrown.
