Renewable Energy

What do you know about Renewable Energy?

The students are exploring various renewable energies in the classroom: Solar Power, Wind Power, and Hydro (water) Power.

Come back soon to see what we have learned and how we are exploring the concept of Renewable vs. Non-Renewable Energy. 

Electromagnetism and the Telegraph

We worked in teams to build a working telegraph!


Using all we knew about electricity and magnetism allowed us to send messages across the classroom.  It was super fun and super challenging, but we did it.  The students quickly realized how difficult it is to send and receive messages in Morse Code.
