Oh Dear! What Can The Matter Be?

VERSES 1.

The first young kid had a wasteful tradition Of leaving his switch in an upward position.

His light burned out while he was fishin’.

And now he knows why he should care!

2.

The second kid was a real wasteful daughter Who washed the dishes while running the water.

And later that night wished her bath tub was hotter And now she knows why she should care!

3.

The third young kid liked to walk with bare feet— Instead of warm socks, he turned up the heat.

The bill was so high, he had nothing to eat And now he knows why he should care!

4.

The fourth young kid was late as a rule— Quite often would miss the last bus for school.

Her mom had to drive her and ran out of fuel And now she knows why she should care!

5.

The fifth young kid wanted some kind of snack— He opened the fridge—looked in front and in back.

He stood there so long, the food all turned black And now he knows why he should care!

6.

The sixth young kid often ran out to play Leaving her Play Station running all day.

Her dad finally took the whole system away And now she knows why she should care!

Youth Energy Conference and Awards

Youth Awards Program for Energy Achievement

The NEED Youth Energy Conference and Awards gives students more opportunities to learn about energy and to explore energy in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math).

The annual June conference has students from across the country working in groups on an Energy Challenge designed to stretch their minds and energy knowledge. The conference culminates with the Youth Awards Ceremony recognizing student work throughout the year and during the conference.

All NEED schools have outstanding classroom-based programs in which students learn about energy.

Does your school have student leaders who extend these activities into their communities? To recognize outstanding achievement and reward student leadership, The NEED Project conducts the National Youth Awards Program for Energy Achievement.

For More Info: www.youthenergyconference.org

Share Your Energy Outreach with The NEED Network!

This program combines academic competition with recognition to acknowledge everyone involved in NEED during the year—and to recognize those who achieve excellence in energy education in their schools and communities.

What’s involved?

Students and teachers set goals and objectives and keep a record of their activities. Students create a digital project to submit for judging. In April, digital projects are uploaded to the online submission site.

Want more info? Check out www.NEED.org/Youth-Awards for more application and program information, previous winners, and photos of past events.
