Electricity Generation Slam Poetry Project {Editable}
This FULLY EDITABLE project has become an exciting addition to my course. Students get to research a method of energy generation (wind, solar, tidal, hydro, coal, geothermal, biomass or nuclear) and then convert their research into a rhyming slam poem that they perform in front of the class (see below for student sample). As a fun little thing for my students….I made the instructions for this project in the form of a rhyming slam poem itself!….check out the preview to see it.

Series and Parallel Circuits Simulation - Bundled
Series and parallel circuits the easy way, and bundled to boot!
We want our students to build circuits to understand Ohm's law, potential difference, current, and resistance, but most of the lab time is spent fighting with the equipment. Loose wires, worn out batteries, dead light bulbs and miss-wired ammeters mean that students don't really get the point of what they are doing. Phet simulations allow students to build series, parallel, and complex circuits and focus on the concepts and the m
