I loaded the website directly into the learning platform that the students use so they have access.
Classroom Educator
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!
