Welcome back! In science recently, we’ve been learning about a whoooole bunch of different things. The driving question is “how does electricity shape our society and how can we generate it more sustainably?” . We had very many projects. Here some of them are.

Energy Infographic

Honestly, I was questioning if we ever did this, until I went and fetched it in Canva. So we made an infographic that shows people different ways that you can generate electricity. We got to chose, so I chose hydropower. You had to show the advantages, disadvantages, where it is commonly used and the sustainability of hydropower.

Electrical circuits + the game.

You probably already know the different types of circuts. Parallel, open, closed all that. So then we had to make a game. We were to each bring in a shoe box to make a dupe of the game Operation. Except that instead of getting shocked, we don’t want to turn on the light. Here is my game:

Answering the driving question:

Flash back, how does electricity shape our society and how can we generate it more sustainably?

I think electricity is important to our every day lives. It powers our houses, schools, work. It helps us use things like computers, phones, TV’s, Nintendo Switches. But I guess some ways could hurt the environment. To make it better, we can use solar power, wind and water (hydropower).
