ENERGY IN OUR LIVES
Big Ideas:
• Everything that happens is a result of using some form of energy.
• The sun is the principal source of energy for the earth.
• Humans need to be responsible for the way in which we use energy.
EXPECTATIONS:
1. assess uses of energy at home, at school, and in the community, and suggest ways to use less energy;
2. investigate how different types of energy are used in daily life;
3. demonstrate an understanding that energy is something that is needed to make things happen, and that the sun is the principal source of energy for the earth.
