Materials for Projects

My Project

I am looking for help with materials for two separate projects. The first project is for my kindergarten classes. They are learning about the 5 senses and the materials needed are for the sense of sight. To help students understand what it is like NOT being able to see, I need masks for the eyes. This will enable students to write, draw and even walk without being able to see. Thus, giving them a "picture" of what it is like being blind.

The second project is for my 4th and 5th graders.

We are creating model cars for egg racers. They will design, build and test cars to keep and egg from breaking. This unit is about different kinds of energy and energy transfer.
