3 DESCRIPTION OF ACTIVITY While participating in hands-on/minds-on activities, students will work individually, with a partner, and in small cooperative learning groups to understand a variety of energy forms. Students will learn to identify renewable and non-renewable sources of energy, by playing the energy trivia game and the non-renewable energy bingo. Students will play the sunlight rays and pipelines game and they will have the chance to create their own trivia questions for it. Introductory Activity: Schema Activation - Is it Renewable or Non-renewable Energy? (40 minutes) Activate Prior Knowledge: Whole class discussion 1. Ask students to define what energy is. Record responses on chart paper or on the white board. 2. Ask students to give examples from everyday life of how that energy is used. Record responses on chart paper or on the white board. 3. Introduce the topic of renewable energy. Record responses on chart paper or on the white board. 4. Think-pair share. Have them identify various renewable energy sources and how they are used, share with a partner and record responses. 5. Depending on responses, discuss different renewable energy sources, such as solar, wind, geothermal, biomass, tidal, wave, and hydropower. The discussion can be very brief or completed after the Is it Renewable or Non-renewable Energy? activity. 6. Introduce the topic of non-renewable energy. Think-pair share. Have students brainstorm the definition of renewable and non-renewable energy. Record responses on chart paper or on the white board. Repeat the above process. 7. Students work with a partner to complete the Is it Renewable or Non-renewable Energy? activity. Each pair is given a set of cards (BLM 1.1.a-with various pictures of renewable energy sources/non-renewable energy sources) and a T-Chart (BLM 1.1.b). Both students work cooperatively to identify the renewable from the non-renewable energy cards and place them correctly on the T-chart. Students record their answers directly on the T-chart (then glue in science journal) or directly in their science journals. Enhancing Activity: Energy Trivia Game and Non-renewable Energy Bingo Activity (40 minutes) Divide students into small cooperative learning groups of 5-6 students to play the Energy Trivia Game and the Non-renewable Energy Bingo Activity. Each group will spend approximately 20 minutes playing each activity and then will rotate to the next learning task. The Energy Trivia Game tests students knowledge of a variety of renewable energy sources, while the Non-renewable Energy Bingo Activity is testing what they know about non-renewable energy sources. Energy Trivia Game: 1. Select six students to play the Energy Trivia Game at one time. 2. Students stand behind the taped line on the floor, making sure each of them are in front of a plastic bucket and a renewable energy picture. 3. Each player is given a numbered tennis ball, which corresponds to the number cards taped to the line that they are standing behind. 4. Students hold the tennis ball in their hand and listen to the trivia question being read. Either the teacher or selected students can read the questions. If students are reading the question, make sure that you indicate to the class that they can t throw their tennis ball until the entire question has been read. 5. When students know the answer, they throw their tennis ball into the correct bucket. Students who have the correct answer and the ball remains inside the bucket will receive a point. 6. The first person to answer three correct questions will win the trivia round. 7. Remind students that if they step over the line or throw the tennis ball before the entire question is read, they will be disqualified. 8. Also, to make the game flow better and eliminate cheating, have one or two students be the score keepers. Their responsibility is to identify which numbered balls land into the correct buckets and keep an eye on students remaining behind the taped line. 9. Have students play a few rounds prior to them answering their worksheet (BLM 1.2.b). 10. Discuss with students the outcome of the game and their answers from the worksheet. 3

4 Non-renewable Energy Bingo Activity: 1. Select six students to play the Non-renewable Energy Bingo Activity at one time. 2. Choose someone to be the bingo caller. 3. Each player receives a bingo card (BLM 1.3.d) and 12 bingo markers. 4. The caller reads out one question at a time. Remind students to listen to the entire question being read before marking their bingo card. 5. Have students decide what type of non-renewable energy source (coal, natural gas or oil) the question is referring to and place a marker on the answer found on the bingo card. There are approximately 6 different bingo cards so make sure that every student receives a different one. 6. The person who has four correct matches, either across, up and down or diagonally wins the bingo round. 7. Have students play a few rounds prior to them answering their worksheet (BLM 1.3.e). 8. Discuss with students the outcome of the game and their answers from the worksheet. Culminating Activity (Wrap Up Activity): Sunlight Rays and Pipelines Game (35 minutes) 1. Students work in a small group of 5 to 6 to play the Sunlight Rays and Pipelines Game, which is similar to snakes and ladders. 2. Each group is given a game board (BLM 1.4.b), a task card (BLM 1.4.a - containing rules for the game), and a deck of trivia cards (BLM 1.4.c). 3. Students choose a game piece and place it on the start space of the game board. 4. They take turns rolling the die to determine who will play first. The first person with the highest number goes first and students continue taking turns in a clockwise order from the first person. 5. If students land on a pipeline, they must slide down because it represents drilling for fossil fuels and this contributes to the greenhouse effect. 6. If students land on a ray of sunlight, they must slide up because it represents using solar energy, which is renewable energy. 7. When students land on a trivia card space, a group member selects a card from the top of the 8. card deck and asks them a trivia question. If the player answers the question correctly, they can roll the die again and have another turn. However, if they answer incorrectly, the trivia card is pile and asks them a question. If the student answers correctly, they can have another turn. If they answer incorrectly, the player remains on the same space. The trivia card is placed at the bottom of the pile. 9. The first person who lands directly on the finish space wins the game. In order to land directly on the finish space, the student must roll the exact number. 10. When students are finished playing the first round have them develop trivia questions of their own, that they can use for the game. Depending on students abilities, this step could be completed prior to playing the game. 11. Whole Class Discussion Have students sitting at their individual desks for wrap up discussion. 12. Review the importance of renewable energy sources and discuss the long-term impacts on society and the environment of human use of non-renewable energy sources. 13. Game Student Worksheet (BLM 1.4.b) to record their answers from the game.

Tape a card showing either an item that uses energy or an energy source picture to the back of each student.. 4

5 2. Have students walk around a designated area to determine their identities. 3. They ask each other questions that can be answered with only yes or no. 4. Encourage students to create their own questions. However, prior to beginning the game, model examples of appropriate questions to ask, and students can use these questions as well. 5. For example: Am I a type of energy? Am I a renewable energy source? Am I a non-renewable energy source? Do I use energy? etc. 6. Once students have found their identity, they then have to find the person who has their matching card (item must match to its correct energy source and vice versa). 7. Have students return to the carpet and discuss what cards they had and how their item uses energy and what kind of energy it uses. 8. Select pairs of students to present their matched pairs to the whole class. PRINT AND WEB SITE REFERENCES Ecokids. Student section-interesting facts about energy. Energy Kid s Page. Energy facts.

ADAPTATION All accommodations must take into account the student s Individual Education Plan. All of the learning tasks and activities are created to accommodate the needs of students at different ability levels. The lesson plan includes pictures and/or examples of a step by step process, lists, and graphic organizers to enhance learning. The series of pictures are used to break tasks into more understandable steps. Many of the learning activities provide opportunities for peer or group interactions, encouraging the use of cooperative learning/social skills and risk-taking. Adaptations can be made in the following manner: Alternatives to written tasks (culminating task and the Mind Map), such as drawing, pointing to the correct answers, and fill-in-the blanks could be useful. Keypads, word processors and writing software can also be used to support the writing tasks. Reduction in the length or number of written responses (e.g., for the energy trivia worksheet, nonrenewable energy bingo worksheet, and the sunlight rays and pipeline game questions task - have students only complete the student worksheet) Students should be given extended timelines for task completion if required. All materials, equipment, and manipulative should be labelled with text and visual aids. Students can be given exemplars (e.g., sample of completed game questions, and part of the energy trivia worksheet and non-renewable energy bingo worksheet to demonstrate the expectations of the task). 5
