Learning about Energy
This week we are continuing our unit about energy. We learned about our many forms of energy throughout the week, and taught our friends about the type of energy we became experts in. Once we had learned about the many types, it was time to learn about what energy looks like in action, and to start putting our new knowledge to the test.
Home Experiment
Since we have done experiments before in class, we already know a lot about how to be good scientists. So to practice for our many experiments at school on friday we practiced an easy experiment at home first! Here is a video sent in by one of our friends!
School Experiments
At school on Friday, first thing in the morning, we made our way up to the gym to try out 4 different experiments!
Marbles on a skateboard
Dropping a ball from different heights
Dominoes
Bouncing a small ball of a big ball
After we finished all our experiments we came back to class and discussed what we had seen, and what we learned about mechanical, potential, and kinetic energy.
