Energy Transformation: Solar Water Fountain
In this hands-on lesson, students investigate how a solar panel can change energy from sunlight into electrical energy. They also determine how water flows out of the fountain. With the use of a protractor, students will figure out the best angle and direction for the panel to face in order to receive the best flow of water.

In this lesson the students will apply the knowledge of thermal energy to design, build and test a container that keeps cold beverages cold.
Engineers often create small-size models of a new product to test its design. This is especially true with airplanes. Model testing tells engineers how a design responds to different air conditions
In this inquiry-based lesson, students explore energy with the phenomenal Newton's cradle. They will be able to understand and apply the Law of Conservation of Energy. Students will identify the
