Learning Goal
Use technological problem-solving skills to inquire, design, build, and test a device that transforms one form of energy into another (e.g., create a child’s toy that uses a form of energy such as electrical energy from a battery or solar cell to move across the floor [kinetic energy] and make a noise [sound energy]), and examine ways in which energy is being “lost” in the device.
The toy is to be built mainly with recycled materials.
