​"This is a free, web-based (chromebook compatible) roller coaster creator and simulator that features authentic Potential/Kinetic Energy gages.  It included an instructions section that emphasizes the nature of the relationship of PE/KE. It's offers varying degrees of difficulty and is framed as game where you earn points.  I expect students will have a clear understanding of PE & KE, including calculating PE & KE.  Its fun too."  Erik Lunde, science teacher, Miller Creek

"Use this as a reference for reflection, thought and discussion (or fill it out, if you like) with our Science team to identify the NGSS recommended qualities and features, to assist in modifying and creating new NGSS oriented lessons and units.  It guides the teacher through self evaluating your lesson to ensure all aspects of NGSS are incorporated."  Erik Lunde,science teachers, Miller Creek
