Description(click here to see curriculum links)
An exploration of the concepts of conservation of energy and energy transfers and changes, along with an introduction to different forms of energy. Includes at minimum: chemical energy from food, kinetic energy and forms of potential energy. We will also explore energy transformations including light, heat, chemical, electrical and sound and see how different forms of energy can be transferred from object to object and place to place.
