Energizing a Science Class

Ms. Coomes and her kids are learning about energy in her class. They are discovering the potential and kinetic energy all around them. The kids are using math tools to calculate height, degrees of angles, and the speed of objects as energy is converted from potential to kinetic energy! The kids created ramps and tested the speed of the bottles and observed how the height of the ramp affected the speed of the bottles! The kids discovered the Law of Conservation of Energy: energy can never be created or destroyed, only transferred or transformed!
Kids also worked on the 4 Cs and how important it is for scientists to synergize!
