In my Science Classroom, my students are always so excited and curious to learn about how things work. I love to provide a hands on learning experience for all of my students in order to enhance their learning!
When learning about types of energy and circuits, it really helps to bridge the gaps whenever students are be able to get their hands on a circuit to see how it works!
Students do their best learning whenever they are able to have a physical object to practice with when applying their knowledge of what they have learned.
My goals are for my students to have an advanced grasp on the types of energy and how it can be transferred from one form to another. We will use the circuits by exploring:
1. How each circuit needs to have a power source and transducers to work.
2. How to create an open and closed circuit.
3. How to identify where the energy is being transferred to get the complete circuit to work.
I also would like to show my students a Newton's Cradle to show them potential and kinetic energy.
Thank you for considering donating to my classroom to allow my students to grow in their learning!
