This curriculum focuses on understanding energy through a series of controlled experiments in physics and environmental science. Students will explore key objectives such as determining significant aspects of scientific investigations, storing energy in systems, and investigating kinetic energy transfer. Activities include designing controlled experiments about electrical energy and analyzing the motion of a tumble buggy. Through these hands-on experiences, students will enhance their research skills, understand mathematical concepts, and prepare lab reports to solidify their learning.
