Dear Educators/Parents: Thank you for taking the time to use our resources. Use these questions as a starting point to help your students develop understanding of todays topic. Please keep in mind that answers will vary based on your student's grade level. Remember the most important part of learning is having our students experience productive struggle as they develop their own understanding based on their research and prior knowledge.
- Research how a nuclear reactor is used to produce electricity. Create a series of cartoon strips showing how energy is produced at a nuclear power plant. Share you’re your cartoon strip with a friend or family member.
- Using the information you learned from completing question one and additional research on the benefits of nuclear energy, create a short commercial (poster or short video) outlining the benefits of using nuclear energy. Present your commercial to another person.
