Galaxy of Lights: Physical Science in the Garden, grades 6-8
Identify renewable and nonrenewable energy sources which are used to
generate the electricity we need for our homes, businesses, schools, and
factories. Electricity , whether it was produced using renewable or
nonrenewable sources, drives our computers, lights, refrigerators,
washing machines, and more! Create a miniature "Galaxy of Lights"
display to take home.
6th-8th: Students will wire a series of circuits with varying numbers of batteries, wires, bulbs, and switches, and see how different circuits affect the flow of electric current.
Create a miniature "Galaxy of Lights" display to take home.

All
of our new homeschool options align with curricula for K–2, 3–5, and
6-8. Each program uses the Garden’s 120 acres of developed and natural
areas as a teaching classroom, while connecting to National Education
Standards and the Alabama Course of Study.
