Power Patrol!Power Patrol!Start a Classroom

Encourage your students to celebrate Earth Day, Every Day with help from the Power in EnergySM program. How? Create your own classroom Power Patrol! It’s a fun and easy way to teach your students about saving energy at school and at home.

The Mission:Deputize your students to find ways to help your classroom save energy and teach your school how to go green!

The Tasks:First download your Power Patrol Badges at

http://bit.ly/gsjjtA. Then pass one out to every

student in your class and assign one student to be your

classroom’s Power Patrol Monitor. Let this student

lead your class to:

• Make sure the classroom lights are turned off

when the room is empty.

• Turn off computers at the end of the day.

• Close all windows to prevent drafts.

• Recycle paper and other materials.

• Make sure that the classroom sink faucet

is turned all the way off.

You can change your Power Patrol Monitor daily,

weekly, or monthly. Feel free to add, change,

or update the checklist!
