Creative Battery Design
by Ana Ramirez
In this lesson plan, students will be able to investigate battery cells as they construct their own simple batteries:
They will know that batteries are a common store of energy for many devices that we use every day, understand that energy can be transferred from one form to another. For example, when someone is moving down a slide gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. Also, they will know that chemical reactions occur between acids and other materials such as metals.

This lesson is a whole unit on energy. It can be broken up into 10 separate lessons. I chose to put them all together so that it was easier to see how I organized them so you did not have to search

2nd Grade, 3rd Grade
Students will research a biome around the world, including 3 animals, 3 plants, and 3 nonliving parts of the ecosystem. Students will construct a diorama of the biome and illustrate a natural disaster
