Day One Hundred Nine Overview
Day One Hundred Nine Overview
- we began class with a warm up that asked the students to list as many forms of energy as they could
- our list included potential energy, kinetic energy, mechanical energy, thermal energy, sound energy, light energy, chemical energy, nuclear energy, and electrical energy
- after our warm up we finished our notes about kinetic and potential energy
- kinetic energy is the energy of motion
- potential energy is stored energy
- we also talked about the law of conservation of energy
- no energy is created or destroyed, it just changes from one form to another or moves from object to object
- the amount of energy in the universe is the same now and it always was
- with the last twenty minutes of class we played a review game using questions that the students had generated
- the winning teams received candy
Homework
- write a news article based on our Physical Science: Year in Review packet
