Use this unit to help teach your middle school science class about renewable and non-renewable energy sources!
They will learn that using fossil fuels affects the environment and why they are not renewable.
This unit is great for Earth Day or an Environmental Science unit!
This resource includes a variety of activities – seven pages of non-fiction text, response pages, text-dependent questions, interactive notebook flaps, a sorting activity, and answer keys for everything!
It’s more than a week’s worth of material.
This resource is designed to meet the NGSS Earth and Human Activity standard for 4th-grade NGSS 4-ESS3-1. Obtain and combine information to describe that energy and fuels are derived from natural resources and how their uses affect the environment.
If you are looking to give your students reading comprehension passages and questions, this is a great resource! The reading passages have an environmental and science theme.
No prep and easy to use with interesting passages. I was able to use quite a bit of it for a packet to send home when our school closed.

This is a great resource!!! My students were so interested in this, and were able to use some of the renewable energy ideas they learned about when working on another project in class. It also aligned well to CCSS. Looking forward to using this again. 🙂
