National Geographic has a new site that provides excellent resources on energy for students in Grades 4 - 12. Along with energy activities for students in Grades 4 - 8 and Grades 9 - 12 the site also provides an interactive map to explore energy data, a student friendly encyclopedia on common energy topics, energy videos, energy literacy principles, a photo gallery, teacher resources, and a link to a game "Plan it Green: The Big Switch" that allows "that allows players to design and create their own energy-efficient city of the future!"
