Check understanding
- Design a device that converts one form of energy to another (e.g. electrical to light, kinetic to sound)
- Build, test, and identify what works well and what needs improvement
- Explain the energy conversion taking place in the device
“Could your child design and build a simple device — like a rubber-band car or a solar oven — that changes energy from one form to another?”
