My Project
Students learn all about different forms of energy and how it impacts motion. They classify potential and kinetic energy. Real world phenomena are explored as well. We look at energy being transferred from one object to another, and how energy transforms from one form of energy to other forms of energy.
Students will explore and create a collaborative project to culminate the Physical Science unit.
How is energy transferred in a collision? Students will explore this and much more. Circuits are a very important part of our learning. Students will explore and compare/contrast series and parallel circuits. This will lead to them to designing a safety device that can help to prevent collisions. They will need to become “Electrical Circuit Experts” to reach this goal. This taps into all learning styles, as well as students with special needs and students newly acquiring the English language.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
