STEM through a WIND TURBINE

STEM Through a Wind Turbine Curriculum in Your Classroom uses a storyline.This curriculum is based on one main question. How are Communities Impacted by Renewable Energy Produced by Wind Turbines? Each of the 12 lessons in this curriculum, in turn, is based on a grade-level appropriate question:STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) are interwoven in each lesson. While integration of STEM concepts can be challenging, using a wind turbine makes the integration natural. There is a progression from awareness of concepts in elementary grades to qualitative understanding in middle school to quantitative understanding and evidence-building in high school.Each lesson uses the 5E Teaching Model (a research-based best practice). Engagement: Stories or Videos used to create interest; Exploration: Student activity; Explanation: Students explain concepts; Extension: Options for deeper learning; Evaluation: Assessment options. Teacher Edition (background information and objectives) and Student Edition (which can be used as a handout) provided for each lesson.
