The UK's Energy Sources
Get an map of the UK from Google images
Paste it into a document or print and stick it into your exercise book
Research the UK's "energy mix" ie How does the UK generate its electricity and use fossil fuels
Annotate your map to show some of the locations of specific sources of energy
E.g.
Nuclear power stations
Large wind farms (onshore and offshore)
Tidal Power
Wave power
Solar power
Coal fired power stations
Gas fired power stations
Oil fired power stations
HEP
Biofuels
Geothermal Power
Get photographs where possible.
In some case you could explain how it works (e.g. Wave power)
Add place names to build up a picture of the UK and its Energy
Add a suitable title
Try and keep it to one page of A4 (you can go onto 2 pages if necessary)
Print & stick it in your book (if done on computer)
