Use a series of interactive models and games to explore electrostatics. Learn about the effects positive and negative charges have on one another, and investigate these effects further through games. Learn about Coulomb's law and the concept that both the distance between the charges and the difference in the charges affect the strength of the force. Explore polarization at an atomic level, and learn how a material that does not hold any net charge can be attracted to a charged object. Students will be able to:

Science Instructional Plans (SIPs) help teachers align instruction with the Science Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the content and the scientific and engineering practices found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.

Using a hot wheels car, students can either convert the car's kinetic energy into potential energy in some form (gravitational or elastic), or transfer the car's kinetic energy to another object. Students then use the companion document to answer analysis questions.

Explore how heating works in different rooms in the home. Rooms may be bigger or smaller, may have windows or no windows, and may have multiple sources of heat or one. All of the conditions will affect how well a room will be heated, and subsequently the room’s energy efficiency. A more energy-efficient room will require less energy to produce the same outcome (e.g., the same level of heating).

Learn about conservation of energy with a skater dude! Build tracks, ramps and jumps for the skater and view the kinetic energy, potential energy and friction as he moves. You can also take the skater to different planets or even space!

Great to use as an introduction to kinetic and potential energy transformations. This simulation shows how kinetic, potential, and thermal energy transformations occur as a person skates on a ramp. It graphs the relative values so that students can see the change in energy with the change in the position of the person.

This module is designed to guide students in better understanding energy and its many different forms. The students will also understand how one form of energy is transformed into another form of energy. The teacher will facilitate students' explorations as they generate a summary of their experiences. Throughout this unit, students will be guided in using practical materials such everyday appliances, electrical energy, energy from the sun and kitchen materials to create a device that can transform energy.This module was developed by Sarah Donnelly, Stephanie Hooks, and Karin Kaerwer as part of a Virginia Commonwealth University STEM initiative sponsored by the Virginia Department of Education.
