Understanding and studying energy transfer produced by molecules collisions can be difficult and abstract for them. To make it easier for them to visualize, creating a Newton's Cradle will help them
After learning about solar, students will create a solar-powered device that can be used by the community. Students work in groups to engineer a device and present the final product to the class.
This is a continuation of lesson 1 and 2. Students will learn about kinetic vs. potential energy and apply that knowledge to their car designs.
