Finding Energy Education Resources

Within the Physical Science curriculum there is unit dedicated to the study of Energy. Questions explained within this unit may include definitions of energy and the study of the forms of energy. In addition to the resources that they already have, teachers may find additional resources, lesson plans and activities to aid in their study of this subject within the websites of various energy related companies. These websites may provide student friendly answers and visuals. Organizations providing such resources include the Energy Application Organization, the Department of Energy, the Environmental Protection Agency, the National Energy Foundation as well as local power companies. Teacher resources provided by many of these companies may be found at the following links:
