The NEED Project

Over 45 Years of Putting Energy into Education!

On the final day of the Massachusetts Energy Conference for Educators, teachers explored energy efficiency, energy conservation, and climate science through hands-on learning.

From the Energy House challenge to modeling the greenhouse effect in a beaker, educators experienced inquiry-based activities they can take back to their classrooms and learning environments.

Thank you to everyone who joined us this week! We can't wait to see these lessons inspire the next generation of energy-literate students! 🌎💡

And thank you to the sponsors for their support of this great professional development opportunity ⚡️
