Energy STEM Challenges The perfect challenges for students who are studying Energy and Earth Science! This resource is part of the Earth Science (Entire) Curriculum. This resource has science, technology, engineering, and measurement activities to do with your upper elementary kids that will really enhance their learning! There are 2 Energy STEM Challenges in this pack. Each STEM Challenge has detailed directions, photo examples, a list of materials needed, prediction section, brainstorming…

A Kinetic and Potential Energy Lab The lab ran smoothly and the kids enjoyed it. I have shared it on my TpT account for you to download! And here are some half decent interactive sites I used with my mimeo today (the kids love any opportunity to use the mimeo pen): Temperature & Kinetic Energy Potential and Kinetic Energy - Paint Buckets on a Ladder And some video clips: Surprisingly, my kids voted they liked the "older one" best. (embedded below) Brain Pop - Potential Energy Brain Pop…

Hey Teacher Friends, Right now I’m in the process of creating a series of STEM projects for students who are studying Earth Science.. The current unit I’m focusing on is ENERGY! After doing a little research, I came up with two great STEM projects that are simple enough to create in the classroom. Initially I

So, you are thinking about doing a potential and kinetic energy worksheet, but you want a little something extra! I got you! Now...
