2. Module Enhancements History of electricity Safety and electricity Do an electricity Webquest Co-teach with science teacher Learn about series and parallel circuits

3. Module Enhancements Engineering Design Students create a generator During the design projects students would have to pick which types of generators (look at pros/cons/costs)

4. Module Enhancements Scientific Inquiry Students question and investigate pros and cons of different power sources Expand on electricity in general and types of electricity

5. Module Enhancements Ethics Teamwork Different types of generators and affects on our environment Conservation of Energy – Survey

6. Modification for grades K-4 KWL Chart Word Wall Vocabulary: volt, electricity, line load Instead of equations use inequalities Modify truck activity so students will portray trucks and hubs, then transfer the concept to any form of electricity Safety in using electricity Design safety posters

7. Modifications for grades 5-8 Discuss the 3 Bus system without using equations (Model higher level math) Study the history of electricity Study safety in using electricity
