VIRTUAL LEARNING COMMONS
Big Idea: Everything that we do uses energy. We need to use energy in a responsible way.
Energy Sources: Food, Hydro/Water, Nuclear, Wind, Solar
Autotrophs: Plants are autotrophs. They make their own energy using the sun's heat, water, and carbon dioxide
Heterotrophs: We are heterotrophs. We need to consume food (plants and/or animals that consume plants) to gain energy.
