Consistent with the referenced award, Montshire Museum of Science designed and fabricated an energy education program, consisting of a set of interactive exhibits which are now being circulated to schools in New Hampshire and Vermont through the museum`s extensive school outreach services. The hands-on exhibits, designed for grades 4--6, travel to schools accompanied by a museum science educator and help participants discover basic principles of electricity, learn how one uses it to do work, and gain greater awareness of the meaning of energy conservation. Student materials and teacher training components are included.
