Wanted: Old Appliances

Hello everyone,
In the next few weeks we will wrap up our first inquiry unit. The next inquiry based unit will have a science theme and will focus on electricity and energy conservation. I'm hoping to round up enough toasters and small appliances to allow the children to work in groups of two to disassemble them and look at the wires and circuits. So far, I have 4 appliances and need to acquire 9 or 10 more. If you have an old unused, even broken appliance at home, please send it to school with your child. I'd also appreciate it if you could mention this project to friends and relatives - maybe they'd have old appliances that they were going to be getting rid of, and could give it to us for this project.
Thanks so much for your help!
Ms. Gallays
