Submission Required
In small groups, students conduct a guided campus walk with clipboards, a simple tally sheet, and sketch boxes to document signs of wasted light, heat, or electricity in places like hallways, classrooms, doors, and shared spaces. The teacher models how to record counts, draw quick location sketches, and separate observations from guesses. Groups return to sort evidence and identify early patterns about where energy may be wasted and who experiences the effects.
