What if you could challenge your fifth graders to develop an economical, eco-friendly wind farm? With this volume in the STEM Road Map Curriculum Series , you can! Wind Energy outlines a journey that will steer your students toward authentic problem solving while grounding them in integrated STEM disciplines. The series is designed to meet the growing need to infuse real-world learning into K- 12 classrooms. This book is an interdisciplinary module that uses project- and problem-based learning to investigate the interactions of Earth's systems, including geography, weather, and wind. Your students will - Study U.S. geography, weather patterns, the economics of wind energy, and issues around the use of wind turbines as an energy source. - Learn about how Earth's spheres-- including the lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biospheres-- interact and how to observe and measure them. - Be challenged to develop a wind farm. Working in teams, they will analyze the wind energy potential of a possible location. Then, they will create a proposal that considers the wind farm's cost, energy production, and environmental impact. - Deliver their presentations to garner support from the wind farm's surrounding community and potential investors. The STEM Road Map Curriculum Series is anchored in the Next Generation Science Standards , the Common Core State Standards , and the Framework for 21st Century Learning. In-depth and flexible, Wind Energy can be used as a whole unit or in part to meet the needs of districts, schools, and teachers who are charting a course toward an integrated STEM approach.
