As a springboard into our electricity unit in science class, third grade students experienced the incredible energy that our region has to offer at the New York Power Authority. Third graders were able to set their inner engineers free to build their own power dams. Along with building dams, students were able to operate a power plant in the control room simulator, direct power at the transmission table, and immerse themselves in a surround-sound, multi-sensory Power-Up 4D theatre experience. To say the day was a ‘power’ful one would be an understatement!
