Energy Observations at SEA

 
Thank you to Ms. Gentry's and Mr. Wulff"s 4th grade classes at the School for Engineering and Arts for inviting me to visit today. One of the students dubbed our time together as "Energy Observations." I like it. As you can see, the 4th graders were busy taking notes and calculating the cost of the energy needed to illuminate the fluorescent light bulbs above them in the media center.
The students asked some great questions as we talked about different types of light bulbs and the various wattage amounts. We also discussed phantom or vampire energy and the classes were given a homework assignment to hunt for vampire energy around their homes tonight.
