Energy Tic Tac Toe

Guidelines & Resources

Picture
Static Electricity Trick - Video tape yourself completing one or more of the static electricity tricks: moving a can, bending water, etc.  Be sure to explain how the electrons move and why the trick is happening.  Post a video to Seesaw showing your attempt and explanation.
Static Electricity Tricks
Energy Transfer Challenge - Describe 5 different scenarios with pictures where an energy transfer occurs.  Explain the scenario, and a detailed explanation of the different types of energy involved.  Feel free to use any presentation tool (Slides, Emaze, Prezi, etc), and post your finished product to Seesaw.

​Build a Rollercoaster - If we were in class, we would use foam tubes, painter's tape, and marbles.  At home, it's time to see your creativity shine when choosing materials.  As you complete this activity, focus on potential and kinetic energy.  Your goal, is to create a rollercoaster that includes one loop, and includes an explanation of potential and kinetic energy in your video.  Gravity and friction will play a big role in your success!  Post a video to Seesaw showing your rollercoaster and explanation.
​Energy Quiz Game - Using your knowledge about different types of energy, create a quiz game that will help your classmates.  Include several types of energy, and your quiz game must include at least 10 questions (spelling matters!).  Resources:  Kahoot, Quizizz, Quizlet, or ???.  Types of energy to include: kinetic, potential, thermal, sound, light, static electricity, and different types of renewable energy.  Post your game link to Seesaw so we can enjoy as a class.
Design a Rollercoaster - Neatness counts!  On this activity, draw a design, or use the digital tools like Sketchpad or Autodraw to design a rollercoaster that has at least two loops.  On your rollercoaster, label where the car has the most potential energy and where it has the most kinetic energy.  Be sure to name your rollercoaster, and be creative with your design.  Post a link, file, or picture of your rollercoaster design to Seesaw.
Create a Balloon Car - Using potential and kinetic energy (and Newton’s Third Law of Motion), build a car that moves using a balloon.  Type of wheels, it's up to you.  Your only goal is to make your car move using the energy stored in the balloon.  Post a video to Seesaw showing your balloon car and explanation.

Renewable Energy ThingLink - Using thinglink.com, create an energy themed ThinkLink, sharing your knowledge about renewable energy.  Your ThingLink should include a renewable energy related background, an explanation on at least THREE types of renewable energy, and at least THREE videos on any type of renewable energy.  Six ‘dots’ minimum on this activity.  Remember to login using your Google account.  Post the ThingLink link to Seesaw.

Solar Powered Oven - S'mores anyone!?!  Can you turn a pizza box into a cooker?  Or create your own version?  This renewable energy challenge gives you a chance to use the sun’s energy for a tasty treat.  Post a picture or video with explanation to Seesaw.
NASA Climate Kids Example
Rube Goldberg Challenge - Use your creativity and critical thinking skills, along with energy transfers to complete this challenge.  Post a video along with an explanation of the energy transfers to Seesaw.
