This is a bundle of 13 lessons and activities on energy conservation and energy efficiency. Would work well in any electricity unit or for any climate change education.

In this curriculum-connected activity (Alberta, Ontario), learners will use an interactive simulator to gain hands-on experience with a wind turbine. By the end of this activity, learners will understand how a wind turbine works with changes to speed and wind direction, and be able to name and understand the function of a wind turbine's components. This activity is part of GreenLearning's Re-Energy program.

In this curriculum-connected activity (Alberta, Ontario), learners will collect flowing water and/or sediment samples to analytically test for plastics via density separation and visual inspection. This experiment kit includes a lesson plan and plastic testing procedures, and is part of GreenLearning's Eco 360 program, which explores the concept of the circular economy through the lens of the plastic problem.
