The most popular NGSS and APES-aligned lesson in January was “The Energy Mix,” including the How We Make and Use Energy introductory video, which had over 17k views! In this lesson Scott Tinker takes students on a fascinating and compelling exploration of the different energy sources and their impacts. 

Engaging supplemental materials include a bell ringer, exit ticket and a reading passage with visuals and information that expand on the main topic.
