Vex Motors

Ok this MAY sound like a very stupid question to some of you, but here it goes.

So this afternoon we got a bunch of AA batteries tried attaching them to the motors (through alligator clips and the box where you plug the things.. (omg so embarrassed I forgot name). Basically nothing happened, the vex motors did not spin and the servo motors moved for a millisecond.

Can someone tell me why that is???

Also, are we allowed to gear down the motors?

Thanks,

Fred
