Paper Circuits Teacher Mini-Workshop

Paper Circuits Workshop imageWe’re excited to offer Paper Circuit Workshops for 4th and 5th grade teachers. All teachers who attend this 1-hour virtual workshop will receive a FREE class set of supplies. The light up paper circuit project possibilities are endless! We’ll be sharing some ideas to help you get your class started, and you’ll have some time to create and ask questions.

These workshops are full! Thank you for your interest.

  • Wednesday, November 1: 4 – 5 pm
  • Saturday, November 4: 10 – 11 am

During the workshop, we will cover the following NGSS Performance Expectations. These important energy-related standards are core concepts for 4th graders and a great review for 5th graders.

  • 4-PS3-2 Make observations to provide evidence that energy can be transferred from place to place by sound, light, heat, and electric currents.
  • 4-PS3-4 Apply scientific ideas to design, test, and refine a device that converts energy from one form to another.

Solar Bug Teacher Mini-Workshop

Solar Bugs workshop materials

This FREE workshop is a jam-packed hour with information about how to easily bring solar energy topics into 4th and 5th grade classrooms. After the workshop, attendees will be provided with solar teaching resources and classroom sets of Solar Bugs. This way teachers can build the bugs with their students on a sunny day that fits their schedule!

We will touch on the following NGSS Standards.

  • 4-PS3-2 Make observations to provide evidence that energy can be transferred from place to place by sound, light, heat, and electric currents.
  • 4-PS3-4 Apply scientific ideas to design, test, and refine a device that converts energy from one form to another.
  • 4-ESS3-1 Obtain and combine information to describe that energy and fuels are derived from natural resources and their uses affect the environment.
  • 5-PS3-1 Use models to describe that energy in animals’ food (used for body repair, growth, and motion and to maintain body warmth) was once energy from the sun.
  • 5-ESS3-1 Obtain and combine information about ways individual communities use science ideas to protect the Earth’s resources and environment.
