Energy

This is part one of a design challenge where students are asked to brainstorm a device that allows energy to be transferred for as long as possible, similar to a Newton's Cradle. Students use the

Students explore the limiting factors of yeast over 2-3 days. The materials needed are yeast, sugar, water, ice, tea kettle, empty soda or water bottles, balloons, graduated cylinder, string, ruler

Students will be working with creating series and parallel circuits. Students will gain an understanding of the components used to create circuits and how circuits function in our everyday lives.

In this engaging lesson, students explore and observe thermal shock by watching marbles bake and placed in ice water. Science and math concepts are covered in this unique lesson as well as visual arts

Using rock salt, ice, juice, and thermometers, students will use their inquiry framework to investigate how slushies are made and see if they are able to replicate the results of a traditional slushy

Understand and implement the steps of the Design Thinking Process. Students will also be using their knowledge of energy to design a balloon-powered car that travels the farthest.

The lesson plan is about energy transfer in an ecosystem using beads. Students will participate in an interactive simulation about energy transfer. They will collect data and ultimately create a class

Students will explore energy, electricity, and engineering in this hands-on lesson using the Kidwind kit to create a wind turbine.

In this lesson students will discuss how contact forces cause energy to be transferred and objects to move. They will learn that sound waves involve contact forces. Students will consider how contact
