The ABCs are one of the building blocks of primary students. Why not teach the
ABCs of energy at the same time? This hands-on workshop introduces basic energy
content through fun and engaging activities that will lay the ground work for
energy education at an early age. Students will apply classroom learning to their
own life through a family-oriented take-home activity.
