Appendix
Implementing District Standards
District standards will be met by doing demonstrations on magnetic fields of magnets and the students will draw the results of the demonstrations in their Engineering notebooks. Students will also have to write paragraphs on the meaning of the results. After each experiment, we will do verbal share-outs on critical concepts. Using Google Classroom, students will answer questions on content matter and the results are returned immediately after submission. Students will also do experiments with batteries, enamel wire, copper wire to understand energy in the form of electricity and magnetic fields. This will involve some building and assembly. The students will write their observations, challenges and conclusions informally in their engineering notebook. The last activity is to build a generator that can be mounted to complete the wind turbine. The students will read the maximum current generated and put it in a shared spreadsheet. The students will make a power point presentation and include a frequency histogram of the class results.
