The people of Oklahoma oil and natural gas are providing virtual K-12 energy education workshops this fall through the Oklahoma Energy Resources Board (OERB).

The two-hour Zoom workshops provide handson lessons aligned to Oklahoma academic standards, materials and professional development hours.

Educators who attend the virtual workshops will receive a kit with enough materials needed to complete the activities, in person or virtually.

These workshops are smaller versions on the OERB’s typical full-day workshops, which were canceled due to COVID-19.

“When it comes to providing quality resources for Oklahoma teachers, we can’t take a year off,” said OERB Executive Director Mindy Stitt, a Dover native.

“Virtual workshops offer a great way to continue our mission and support our educators.”

Written for Oklahoma teachers by Oklahoma teachers, the OERB’s hands-on curricula include many STEM lessons.

Spaces are limited for each workshop. Registrants who sign up after a workshop is filled will be put on a waiting list.
