What Others Are Saying About Us
We have used the poster, online games, and the challenge booklet. It is an excellent way to inform students about energy, specifically Natural gas. It covers 4th grade science standards too. Thank you for doing this and making it very simple to implement in school. The students love it!
Elementary Teacher
We continue to talk about using energy safely. The program is engaging and meaningful for the students and they understand more about energy safety afterwards. Some families rely on the schools to teach their children about safety and so a program like this one is invaluable. The mercaptan stickers are always a hit with students. The stinky smell is memorable and gives them a great conversation starter for when the get home!
Elementary Teacher
This is an excellent program for both curriculum and safety.
