⚡ Energy in Motion

Discover how energy is related to motion, how it moves through light, heat, and sound, and how we can build devices that use or convert energy.

🧠 Guiding Questions

  • What is energy and how is it related to motion?
  • How is energy transferred from one place to another?
  • How can we use energy to solve a problem?

🎯 Learning Objectives

  • Explain how the speed of an object relates to its energy.
  • Make observations that show energy transfer through sound, light, heat, and electric currents.
  • Design a simple device that converts energy from one form to another.

📘 NGSS Standard: 4-PS3

Students will use evidence to explain the relationship between speed and energy, observe energy transfer, and build devices that demonstrate energy conversion.
