These materials are developed for use in middle schools. The materials are divided into three units, the first covers issues related to fossil fuels, the second covers human use of energy and how it has changed over time, and the third introduces concepts of energy efficiency, conservation, and renewable energy sources. The units each contain several activities, teaching tips, supplementary resources, and interdisciplinary connections.
