Product Overview
Designed to align with NGSS standards (4-ESS1-3), learners will examine the differences between the two types of energy resources and relate them to energy use in their own lives. This one-page, easy-to-print comic clearly defines the concepts in a highly visual manner. Readers will first reflect on energy usage in their own lives and reflect on how much of it is renewable. They will then read about the two energy resources. This comic touches on fossil fuels and why they are considered nonrenewable.
