The park map
Ride anything, in any order. Every ride reshuffles when you replay it. Each ride banks V-Points up to its own limit, then it's just for fun — so spread out to reach 500.
Ticket Booth
Your V-Points turn into Den currency. Fill in your ticket, copy your reward code, and redeem it on the Codes tab in The Den. The Den banks up to 500 from Energy Park.
Your ticket
Type your name the way your teacher knows it — it is sealed inside the code so only you can redeem it.
Reward code
- Copy the gold code above.
- Open The Den → Codes tab.
- Paste it. The Den pays only the part it has not paid before, so you can come back for more.
Switching devices?
This blue save code moves your ride progress to another Chromebook. It is not the code you redeem in The Den.
Load a save code
Paste a EPR code from another device to pick up where you left off.

Standards
Every ride is tagged with the element it builds. Filter the park map by standard to drill one.
Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about the law of conservation of energy to develop arguments that energy can transform from one form to another within a system.
Analyze and interpret data to create graphical displays that illustrate the relationships of kinetic energy to mass and speed, and potential energy to mass and height of an object.
Plan and carry out an investigation to explain the transformation between kinetic and potential energy within a system (e.g., roller coasters, pendulums, rubber bands, etc.).
Construct an argument to support a claim about the type of energy transformations within a system [e.g., lighting a match (light to heat), turning on a light (electrical to light)].
Plan and carry out investigations on the effects of heat transfer on molecular motion as it relates to the collision of atoms (conduction), through space (radiation), or in currents in a liquid or a gas (convection).
