Option 2 ALTERNATIVE ASSESSMENT: Option 1(required option if off task) if off task or absent: Option 1(required option if off task) Answer ALL QUESTIONS on page 238-239. Research 3 alternative Energy Sources. Write a short paragraph on each one for a total of 3 paragraphs. Create a list of all websites or books used to help you do this. Option 2 (can do this if absent instead of option 1 if you want) Create a poster board, powerpoint, or video that discusses 3 alternative energy forms.

Today RECORD VOLTS. MODIFY DESIGN OR START OVER PUT ON 200m DESIGN with Paper At Desk next TEST on PENCIL Blow on it first. Then Hallway Get Motor TEST with MOTOR In Hallway DRAW DESIGN TEST WITH MOTOR AND VOLTMETER IN CLASSROOM Next RECORD VOLTS. MODIFY DESIGN OR START OVER PUT ON 200m

FILL THIS OUT BEFORE YOU TEST WITH VOLTOMETER Worked better at the 200 m
