What educators are saying

My students were engaged with this activity. This made it easier for my ELL students since there are visuals to follow along with.

Description

The conversations you will observe will be amazing! This is great for mainstream, SPED and English language learners. You have front-loaded vocabulary, visual representations of Kinetic and Potential energy and it's EASY PREP!!! I also provide teacher directions and a key...

If you want it to use for Google Classroom or Distance Learning its ready to go!

NGSS Standard: PS3.B: Conservation of Energy and Energy Transfer When the motion energy of an object changes, there is inevitably some other change in energy at the same time.

-Print pages 3, 4, 5 and 6 of this document for each group.

-Have the students read page #3 “What is Energy” in order to front-load the vocabulary and scaffold the activity.

-Cut along the dotted lines on pages 5 and 6 so that you have 16 individual pictures/descriptions (I suggest a teacher’s aide, parent volunteer or a student finished with work).

-Scramble and place these pictures in one envelope per group.

-Have the students place the correct pictures underneath either -Kinetic Energy or Potential Energy on page 4 of this document.

-After students have finished the card sort, they can then draw pictures of how each example of kinetic and potential energy can be converted into potential and kinetic energy respectively.

-You can print or have the students draw the second part where the students describe how Kinetic energy is converted to potential energy and vise versa.

-As for the energy conversions, you will get lot’s of different answers which is great for class discussions. Essentially, all the Kinetic energy pictures convert to Potential energy if the person or object stops moving. For example, if the skateboarder stops skating and picks up his board, his board now has Potential energy. And as long as The Potential energy pictures shows the person/object moving, then it converts to kinetic energy.

NGSSMS-PS3-2

Develop a model to describe that when the arrangement of objects interacting at a distance changes, different amounts of potential energy are stored in the system. Emphasis is on relative amounts of potential energy, not on calculations of potential energy. Examples of objects within systems interacting at varying distances could include: the Earth and either a roller coaster cart at varying positions on a hill or objects at varying heights on shelves, changing the direction/orientation of a magnet, and a balloon with static electrical charge being brought closer to a classmate’s hair. Examples of models could include representations, diagrams, pictures, and written descriptions of systems. Assessment is limited to two objects and electric, magnetic, and gravitational interactions.

NGSSMS-PS3-5

Construct, use, and present arguments to support the claim that when the kinetic energy of an object changes, energy is transferred to or from the object. Examples of empirical evidence used in arguments could include an inventory or other representation of the energy before and after the transfer in the form of temperature changes or motion of object. Assessment does not include calculations of energy.

NGSSMS-PS3-1

Construct and interpret graphical displays of data to describe the relationships of kinetic energy to the mass of an object and to the speed of an object. Emphasis is on descriptive relationships between kinetic energy and mass separately from kinetic energy and speed. Examples could include riding a bicycle at different speeds, rolling different sizes of rocks downhill, and getting hit by a wiffle ball versus a tennis ball.
