Lest you all think that American middle schools have no interest in teaching kids about energy, at least one is doing something. My 6th grader has been studying the topic of energy all year in various ways. They plan to have a big "energy fair" at the end of March. Children have had to research their topic (my daughter's topic was secondary sources, such as ethanol) and this week, she and a partner have to come up with a game for the fair to teach parents about energy use. I put my suggestion of having a bunch of different foods, and having people guess how much oil/gas is used in the production and transport of such foods. Although, her being a 6th grader, will probably throw my idea out the window, and come up with a better idea.
PS for those who still believe in a heaven/hell concept...we all make our own every day...no matter what the pulpit occupier tells you.
