How Much Electricity Did You Use Today?

Students collect data at home about their family’s energy consumption over one day. Students then identify potential energy reduction strategies.

Key lessons and understandings of activity:

• How much energy do students personally use?
• How much energy do the families of students use?
• What actions can we take to reduce energy consumption?

N.B. Confirm that this activity complies with your school’s privacy policies. Your school may require you to send a letter home with the students requesting that students collect data.
