In this work and energy worksheet, learners review energy laws, potential energy, and kinetic energy. This worksheet has 8 fill in the blank, 7 short answer, and 5 matching questions.

Pupils determine the difference between renewable and non-renewable resources and identify the different forms of energy. They discuss life without energy and where energy comes from before reading an article about the different sources...

Pupils, using the Internet to research the different types of energy that people use, prepare a slideshow presentation with their research.

Sixth graders study energy conversions. They watch a demonstration of a working engine and make a chart explaining the energy conversions taking place. They build a simple electric motor and research other types of electric generators.

Students explore ten different stations that demonstrate either chemical, kinetic, or mechanical energy. They examine the way energy is transferred during each station's hands-on activity. Stations include vinegar and baking soda,...

Learners identify different kinds of energy such as heat energy, kinetic energy, potential energy, and magnetic energy. They investigate the concept of conservation of energy.

Young scholars study how to calculate momentum, kinetic, and potential energy. They apply each form of energy to real world situations including demonstrations, watching videos, and designing a Power Point presentation. They...

Young scholars explore, examine, experiment and study the energy believed to exist in the vacuum of space called zero-point energy. They design and build a machine and then place their machines to test zero-pointed energy into a...

Students examine their understandings about energy concepts by completing an online survey. Students participate in a class discussion about their uses of resources and the differences between perpetual, renewable, and nonrenewable...

Sixth graders explore potential and kinetic energy. In this science lesson plan, 6th graders assume the role of a roller coaster engineer and design a roller coaster. Students use their knowledge of kinetic and potential energy to design...

In the study of science, there is always going to be research, data, theories and wonderful new discoveries. I feel that my interest about energy will help me design an adequate unit full of intrigue and discovery. The students should...

Young scholars examine environmental issues. In this energy instructional activity, students explore the topic of energy conservation and then create marketing (to be implemented in their school) meant to communicate the benefits of...

In this energy worksheet, students will brainstorm examples of potential energy and kinetic energy and list them in their appropriate categories.

In this energy worksheet, students complete a graphic organizer by writing in examples of potential energy and kinetic energy.

Students use a NASA website do activities which help them better explain how air temperature and kinetic energy are related to aircraft propulsion.

Students are asked: Is our life's purpose over when it's over? What happens to our bodies? They analyze the flow of energy through living systems. Students compare the metabolism of autotrophs with that of heterotrophs. They create a...

In this heat worksheet, students complete experiments with heat and answer short answer questions about the transfer of thermal energy. Students complete 4 questions, one chart, and one bar graph.

Students discuss the reasons why oil and gas are the United States' main source of energy. In groups, they use the internet to research how the resources are formed and the amount of consumption by the United States. They choose books...

Seventh graders determine what makes a battery work. In this battery lesson, 7th graders brainstorm ideas about how they think batteries provide energy. They perform an experiment in which they work as a team to assemble a battery. They...

Students explore the use of fossil fuel energy. In this ecology instructional activity, students review the multiple steps used to make an aluminum can. Small groups choose a breakfast cereal and create a flow chart showing all the...

Students discuss the methods of energy transfer. In this energy transfer lesson, students use ice to demonstrate what happens when energy is transferred. Students complete a Science Journal page as an assessment.

Using the sun's light as a source of energy is not a new concept. Give your environmental studies, engineering, or physical science class this list of how humans have used solar energy throughout history. Assign groups a certain time...

Students participate in a lab activity in which they examine a simple energy transformation system. Students test the rebound of elastomers, produce rebound data, and determine the kinetic energy transformed by the impact of a free...

Energy-aware learners conduct an audit on their electricity usage by recording their electric meter reading and assessing the thermostat, light bulbs, windows, and water heaters in their homes. In class, they analyze results and discuss...
