Over the past two weeks, our fourth graders have been diving into Mechanical Energy, exploring both Potential Energy (stored energy) and Kinetic Energy (energy of motion). To apply what they’ve learned, students are working in teams to design and build their own roller coasters! Each roller coaster must clearly indicate where potential energy is stored and where it is converted into kinetic energy as the golf ball travels along the track. Students have been collaborating, testing, adjusting, and using real engineering practices to bring their designs to life.
