Saving Energy with the Louisiana Energy Office

The Louisiana Office of Energy’s Be Energy Smart program is thrilled to bring FREE Virtual and In-Classroom Lessons to K–12 students across the state! Our lessons are hands-on and designed to spark curiosity about energy and conservation.

Cooking with Solar – Students design and build their own solar ovens, then put them to the test by making s’mores or nachos!

All About Oil – Students become engineers as they build and test their very own model oil rigs.

Renewables vs. Non-Renewables – A NEED Project favorite! Students play the Candy Collector game to explore how we use different energy resources.

Squishy Circuits – Students dive into the world of electricity with fun, hands-on circuit-building activities.

✅ All materials are provided whenever possible so that you can focus on the fun of learning.
