In this Science and Technology kit, students have the opportunity to investigate electromagnetism and current electricity. Students will construct simple electric circuits, using a variety of components such as solar panels, D-cells, switches, light bulbs, buzzers and small toy motors. The new guide entitled Our Solar Future contains three options for rich performance tasks that put students in the role of solar architect, solar educator, or solar entrepreneur.

Understanding Matter & Energy. This kit does not contain equipment for teaching static electricity.
