This is for older kids, but may help. I did a project for a 7th - 10th grade science class. The school wanted one module and batteries, but I talked them out of any batteries, and they went with a small awning mount array and grid tied it with weather station, temp and irradiance meters along with monitoring. I created a small week long curriculum for the teachers and walked them through the system using that curriculum. Might be a little more than you're looking for...
