How much energy do i use ?
The chart below is how i recorded the energy use in my own home . As you can see i separated the boxes based on how many rooms were in my house .I monitored my room ,my brothers room , my mums room ,living room ,kitchen and bathrooms .I tried to see how much energy i used by recording what electrical appliances were being used in each room and how long they were on for .
After recording the energy use in my own home . i presented the information i gathered into a group of people who also recorded how much energy they used in their house .As a group we all decided how to display this information together we made a chart on the wall using pins and string that represented how much energy was used in each of our houses and this is what the chart looked liked
So that other people could understand our chart we created a key .A different colour of string represented each electrical appliance. this helped other people understand the chart more as it looked very confusing the colour of the string also represented how much energy was used also.
