Energy Conservation Starts in Your Classroom



Welcome to BPA’s energy conservation school program homepage for educators teaching elementary grades 4 and 5. This website was built for easy access to energy lessons you can complete in one hour or less. Start your students conserving energy today! Classroom-in-a-Box

Simple, Fun, Conservation Lessons and Activities
Each lesson and activity is teacher-tested and can be easily incorporated into your agenda for science instruction. Lessons start with a conceptual framework for energy conservation and are tied to Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana state benchmarks and standards.

Lessons and Activities
  • Conserve in Your Classroom
    Its HUGE! Its FUN! It’s an energy conservation poster puzzle. The poster depicts energy use and waste in a classroom. Incorporate energy conservation into your regular teaching program.
