Start taking the coating off of the copper wire sometimes it doesn't look like it has a coating but it does. Bend the paper clip so it makes a hook tape it or put the thumb tacks their so it doesn't move, then put the magnet in the middle of the paper clips and put the copper wire in it, then you add the battery one wire goes on one paper clip and the other wire goes on the other one the give the copper wire a good push and it will start spinning.
