How did the components of this kit allow your students to explore the topic of energy transformation? my class enjoyed all the activities but needed lots of teacher input to grasp the concepts/outcomes lots of interest in building Rube Goldberg machines, this interest carried through into learning through play and carried on for the term I had difficult
