  •                                  Light Energy - Lessons - Blendspace  

    Context - Relationships have consequences that allow Environments/Societies to Survive/Thrive

    Big Idea :  Our focus this term is on developing our understanding of our Physical World and how the relationship between concepts such as Force and motion, Light and Sound energy is used in our everyday life, and how energy changes and conservation of energy is useful for human society to progress in technology.
