Is it possible that we could reach a day when rolling blackouts become the norm? What can we do today to ensure an adequate energy supply for tomorrow? Can scientific innovation help us become more energy literate? Engage in activities designed to showcase energy and our energy future across disciplines and grade levels (grades 3-12).

Best practices emphasis: Differentiated instruction, literacy across the curriculum
