Blue Flame University

At the end of our science class this past weekend, our professor's husband came in to talk to us about the FREE services that his company does for the schools in the surrounding area.  Their program is targeted for 4th grade, but can be adaptable to most any elementary classrooms if you are interested.  

So, what is Blue Flame University, you ask?  

It is an informational session and demonstration done by Middle Tennessee Natural Gas to educate students (and adults) on natural gas.  The session lasts about 45 minutes to an hour and includes science, math, history and social studies skills.  (Yay for integration!)

*You can find out more details about Blue Flame University on their website.  Also, FYI, the gas company will come out and inspect your residential property and check to make sure that when you start digging for your garden or start the foundation for your new home that that you don't hit any natural gas lines.  All you have to do is dial "811" (at least three days prior to your planned digging)!  For more information on that service you can look here.
