Curiosity is a natural part of childhood learning, but it can be extremely dangerous when it comes to electricity. ESFI is dedicated to reducing the number of childhood injuries and deaths from electrically-related accidents through education and awareness.
As the industry leader in electrical safety, ESFI has a firm commitment to electrical safety education. To effectively teach about safe practices with electricity, ESFI realizes that it is imperative to teach not only about electrical safety, but about electricity itself. By integrating electricity and electrical safety lessons, ESFI creates a one-stop resource for teachers, educators, parents, and students. By developing the lessons through a sound system of educational techniques, ESFI extends its high level of commitment to fostering safe practices in our increasingly electricity-dependent lives.
ESFI has designed our programs to satisfy the leading educational standards without the need for additional resources. The lessons are also designed to be used by all teachers, regardless of their background. Teachers do not need to be scientists or be scientifically proficient. Finally, the lessons are designed to be effective regardless of the socioeconomic status of student or school.
We invite you to use our free resources to assist you in your elementary education and awareness efforts.
