Congratulations, you are a lucky recipient of a Shocking Science classroom kit! This kit was developed by Hands On! Discovery Center in partnership with BrightRidge. The Shocking Science kits were developed specifically with grades 3 through 5 in mind and directly correlate to Tennessee Curriculum Standards pertaining to energy and electricity. We hope you find the materials and activities enrich your classroom curriculum and provide you with valuable support and resources to encourage further exploration of topics for years to come!
