Save on Energy Teacher Grant

Purpose:  SaveOnEnergy.com® is looking for the best lesson plans for teaching students about energy or sustainability. Save on Energy is looking for lesson plans that vary in scope and topic, and you can cite any helpful information you find on the SaveOnEnergy.com Learning Center. All lessons must check off every requirement on the list below to be considered.

  • Encompass energy and/or sustainability knowledge.
  • Be appropriate for a grade level from kindergarten through eighth grade.
  • Include goals and how you plan to measure students’ understanding.
  • Include a fully detailed description of the lesson plan, handouts, etc., with a list of all materials needed.
  • Be created by one teacher without use of existing prepared educational materials outside of those available on SaveOnEnergy.com.
  • Encourage student development through participation opportunities.
SaveOnEnergy.com will award six $500 grants, in the form of Visa Reward Cards, to be used toward classroom materials and activities. Winners' lesson plans will be featured on SaveOnEnergy.com for other teachers to use as resources for their classrooms.

Prizes will be awarded to current teachers who submit energy-related lesson plans. Teachers who have already submitted a lesson to our previous grant opportunity are eligible for the second annual Teacher Grant if they submit an entirely new lesson plan. Winnings must be used toward the materials needed to successfully teach the lesson plan and provide new educational materials to students to enhance the quality of learning.
