Welcome to our first lesson of "Energy, Your Home and You"!
We hope it will help you better understand how your home uses energy
and then investigate ways to be more energy efficient, spend less
on utilities and do your part to help preserve our big home, planet earth.
We will begin each lesson with a list of topics, a summary paragraph
and then get into the details. The entire content is a collection of pdf's
so you may print a copy if you chose. Each topic will include a multiple
choice question at the end. If you answer correctly it will lead you to
the next topic, if not it will direct you to review the topic again.
Please have fun learning.
