ENERGY!!
DRIVING QUESTION: What is Energy?
Law of Conservation of Energy:
states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant — it is said to be conserved over time. This law means that energy can neither be created nor destroyed;
rather, it can only be transformed from one form to another.
ENERGY:
•Energy exists in many forms.
•Energy can be moved from one object to another.
•Energy can be changed from one form to another.
•Energy cannot be created or destroyed.

ACTIVITY #3 Renewable and Nonrenewable Pie Graph Assignment
PROJECT: HOW ARE RENEWABLES AND NON-RENEWABLES RESOURCES USED TO CREATE ENERGY GROUP PROJECT
You will be placed into random groups of 3-4. Each group will be assigned one of the energy resources to investigate. For a copy of the rubric go to this Schoology site.
There are nine major areas of energy resources. They fall into two categories: nonrenewable and renewable. Nonrenewable energy resources are coal, nuclear, oil, and natural gas. The five major renewable energy resources are solar, wind, water (hydro), biomass, and geothermal.
Create a google slide presentation of the renewable or nonrenewable resource you have been assigned. Your slide presentation needs to include the following points of interest.
1. Describe your resource (provide pictures)
2. Is this a renewable or nonrenewable resource?
3. Describe ALL the ways your resource can be converted into energy. Provide a graphic picture to demonstrate each process along with a written description.
4. Who uses your resource and for what purposes?
5. What are the effects of using your resource on the environment?
6. Find at least 3 graphs that demonstrate an important fact about your resourse. Provide an analysis (for each graph) that shows the patterns that are demonstrated or developed in the graph. Hint: You can provide a graph to further describe any question/answer required in this assignment.
7. Name at least 3 important facts about your resource
8. Complete the daily report on what each person's goal is for the day and did they achieve that goal.
ACTIVITY: Read this NEWLSEA article: Generating Energy From the Wind. Put the writing and quiz prompts into your ISN.
