Webinar: Two Energy Lessons for Your Classroom!

Presenter: Greg Hogan, Science Teacher Date: March 7, 2025 Join CREATE for an engaging Energy Webinar with instructor Greg Hogan where he explores two dynamic, hands-on lessons that bring electricity to life in the classroom! Lesson 1: The Electric Spider Kick off your Electricity Chapter with an exciting activity that demonstrates static electricity in action! Students will create an “electric spider” and use PhET simulations, including Static Electricity and John Travoltage, to explore electron transfer and its effects on materials. This lesson combines hands-on experimentation with digital simulations for an interactive learning experience. Lesson 2: The Cost of Using Electricity $$$ Make energy usage personal by having students calculate the cost of electricity in their own homes! This math-meets-science activity sparks engaging discussions about energy consumption, fossil fuel costs, and alternative energy options. Plus, get ready for an energetic twist—students will represent their household energy use with pushups and jumping jacks! This is a great opportunity to gain fresh ideas for your classroom! This is part of the CREATE Innovation series. Additional resources and the worksheets can be found on the CREATE website at CreateEnergy.org under the events tab.
