Energy Ideas/Scientific Method

  • As part of Mini-Society, have kids create an energy plan for Michigan/their business/our country.
  • Do scientific method unit at the beginning of the year with energy efficiency (comparing light bulbs, checking energy meters at their homes)
  • Compare fuel efficiencies of cars (get info from dealerships- field trip to dealership?)
  • Sit down with utility bills and use it for math- how much do things cost?
  • Project Based Learning for school with energy
  • Teach the connections between energy usage-fossil fuels-global warming
  • https://www.dteenergy.com/community/videos.html for loaner videos from DTE
