Energy Detectives Kits
Engage students with the importance of energy conservation through two entertaining picture books in the Energy Detectives series. In The Mystery of the Snow, Annabeth and Charlie become energy detectives to discover where energy is wasted in a home. In The Secrets of the Sun, they explore passive and active forms of solar energy. Each book is available in a class set of both English and Spanish books.
Energy Detectives is a project of Cooler Communities, funded by the Harold Grinspoon Charitable Foundation, which donated all the copies of the book included in these kits. For more information, to view the full curriculum developed for the books, and to order free copies of the books for your classroom, please visit energydetectives.org.
