Students Need To Know:
In this unit, students focus on renewable and nonrenewable resources. They study how people use resources for energy. In addition, they examine the engineering design behind new technologies that protect the environment.
The energy we use is derived ultimately from Earth’s natural resources, which can be classified as either nonrenewable or renewable.
Renewable energy sources include wind, hydroelectric, solar, geothermal, and tidal.
Nonrenewable energy sources include fossil fuels and nuclear energy.
Students learn examples of how unwise use of resources can damage the air, land, and water around us. Then they examine how, on the individual level, they can do many things to protect the environment while using energy society needs.
Vocabulary: renewable energy resource • nonrenewable energy resource • fossil fuel • oil • petroleum • greenhouse gas • nuclear energy • nuclear waste • wind farm • hydroelectric power • solar power • solar cell • geothermal energy • fuel cell • nonfiction • informational text

Meet Mrs. Telarico
Welcome to 4th Grade Room 219! My name is Joni Telarico and I will be your student's teacher for the 2025 -2026 school year! This is my second year teaching fourth grade and my twentieth year teaching. This is my tenth year of teaching at Aspen View Academy.
I am originally from Pennsylvania, but my family has lived here in Castle Rock for the past ten years. I have been married to my husband Mike for 31 years and I have two sons. Matt is 23 and works in Pittsburgh as an engineer, and Cameron is 21 and a senior in college in Utah.
We love living in Colorado and enjoy being outside. Hiking, biking, exercising, and spending time with my family are some of my favorite activities to do! I am looking forward to a great year working with you and your student!!!
