1. What was the most surprising thing you learned about energy during this entire unit?  Why was it surprising?

2. What was your favorite part of this energy unit?  Why was it your favorite?

3. Where is energy found?

4. How would you define energy?

1. it was surprising that gravity was a part of the  rube Goldberg like mine fell and hit a button.

2.I liked heat the best because i like warm climates and explosions are really cool.

3. energy is found every where .


4.Any thing that has ability to move or change in a way.  

1.the heat tuned into water vapor and went to the butter and melted it so it goes down.

2.I think the connection was there was a thermometer and we were recording the temperature as the butter got to the bottom.

3.i wasn't on point at all.

4.copper and aluminum copper went down in 2 seconds and aluminum went down in 7 seconds

5.bamboo and plastic.

6. water is a good conductor because it would make the butter slip and go to the water. It went up the fastest on the copper and the butter slipped the fasted.

7.like lightning it has electricity and if we have mettle it would go straight to the mettle and give it a shock.     


    

My favorite station was the plasma ball because when you touch it has beams coming to your fingers. And it was cool how it was acting like a energy source when it lighted up the bulb.   

2. Which object was most difficult to figure out?  Why was it so hard to figure out the energy transfers in this object?

I think the drinking bird was the hardest because you didn't really know with out reading it. Also you didn't know how it kept going back and fourth. 

3. Which three stations do you feel very confident that you figured out correctly? Describe one and explain what made it so obvious.

I liked the energy ball because i think i did well in it because it thought that you would need a circuit so i touched her finger and it lit up. I think the dominoes would be the easiest because its starts as motion energy and the it goes into sound. I also think we did good at the love thermometer we thought about really fast first it goes from heat to motion and thats it.  

4. Was it always possible to know for sure what kinds of energy transfers occurred?

It was not that easy to know for sure what energy accrued the hardest was the drinking bird.  

Energy is found everywhere.

The easiest is sound energy and the hardest is heat energy.


Well most of them have 3 but heat energy only has 1.



Without energy it would be hard to live
