Forms of Energy
Through experimentation, students explore the concept of energy. Students learn to identify and understand the different forms of energy and their uses in every day life.
Investigation focus:
- Explore the difference between potential and kinetic energy.
- Perform experiments to explore the concept of sound energy and its impact on the senses.
- Explore the concepts of electrical and stored energy by constructing electrical circuits.
- Investigate the Law of Conservation of Energy by performing experiments involving chemical energy and heat energy.
- Perform experiments and analyze results to further understanding of the transfer of energy as related to the Law of Conservation of Energy.
