Solar Challenge
Students will use solar panels, fans, light bulbs, and buzzers to create circuits. Students will analyze their community's use of solar energy.
The Energy Coalition will send you a Solar Kit, which includes 1 solar panel, 3 six-inch insulated copper wires with ends stripped, 1 motor, 1 propeller, 1 light bulb, 1 light bulb stand and 1 buzzer to bring this lesson to life.
