My Project

My students are very passionate about math and science. This year our school will be having a science expo in our school and district. My students are excited to participate however we need some supplies to help us make discoveries and learn new things. Our unit of study in science is on the electrical system and because this is our unit of study we would like to do a STEM activity with this is mind.

This donors choose project will help my students become electrical engineers and make discoveries about different sources of energy.

My students will looks at the pros and cons of both wind energy and solar energy with the help of these STEM actives.
