What did the windmill say about renewable energy? I'm a BIG fan! Lesson three in the series of 12 has classes discuss potential and kinetic energy and then, in pairs, they complete a web quest over the different types of energy resources. Once everyone is finished, the class makes a tree map to categorize nonrenewable and renewable resources and their sources. The lesson ends with an assessment a quiz, essay, or foldable.
