| Energy Poster Contest |
|
| The Iowa Energy Poster Contest is a popular educational experience for school children in grades 1-6. The goal of the contest is to teach students about renewable energy and energy efficiency/conservation. Each student may enter one poster that focuses on energy conservation/efficiency and/or replacement of fossil fuels with those which are renewable. The posters they create then become teaching tools for all of us. |
