Objective and StandardsStudents will …* discuss what they think energy is, where it is found, things it does, and how it is used* search for examples of each form of energy on an “Energy Walk” on the school grounds * operate a variety of “energized” toys and identify the forms of energy that make them run* build three different types of boats, each employing a different type of energy transfer* observe how warmer objects that are close to or touching cooler objects transfer some of their heat energy until both objects are the same* investigate how heat energy transfer by designing and testing insulation from water bottles* attempt to limit heat energy transfer by designing and testing insulation from water bottles* compare the light and heat output of incandescent light bulbs and compact fluorescent light bulbs to understand the concept of energy efficiency.* develop and illustrate ideas for their own inventions, showing how a collection or ordinary objects interacting like a chain-like reaction could perform a task
