Global Solar
This lesson plan focuses around 4 key topics, with activities for each. The plan covers renewable energy, solar energy, why solar energy is important, and what the children can do to conserve energy.
In this lesson, students will watch the PBS NewsHour video, “Rethinking the utility company as solar power heats up” and learn more about the changing nature of our energy and power grids. For the main project, they will experiment with a plethora of solar projects to build a solar enlightened future for the future scientists!
