Lighthouse
In this activity, students read about discovering energy and the impact encountered by ships at sea. Students will have the opportunity to read about how lighthouses can solve those problems and compare different lighthouse pictures and identify common parts of lighthouses.
A group activity follows where students create a drawing of their unique lighthouse pattern. They design a lighthouse model, then build one using materials that are provided in the classroom. This activity is adapted from a grade 5 physical science module in Smithsonian Science for the Classroom.
