Section II consists of a matrix of activities described in the document. Information is presented on grade level, time required, and subject matter. Section III describes learning activities in six areas: (1) sources of energy, (2) uses of energy, (3) conversion of energy from one form to another, (4) impact of energy use on the environment, (5) limits of the earth's resources, and (6) the future. For each activity, information is presented on title, concept, time, implementation, materials, and optional activities. Activities involve students in library research, identifying energy sources used in food and clothing production, suggesting solutions to energy use problems, responding orally and in writing to articles on energy costs and energy use, analyzing energy impact statements, identifying sources of unwise energy use, and discussing energy-related topics with classmates and resource people.
