Energy is always around. Can we learn how to convert it? Can we use renewable resources such as the sun and wind to carry loads or cook? Through these resources, I will be able to give students a chance to put together a circuit in a group or individually. They will be able to use the sun's power to cook a dessert in class. They can see how a wind turbine works, create their own, and then reflect on what we do locally with wind turbines to create energy for our city. These hands-on activities solidify their learning and enable them to connect to real-world issues we have about using energy.
