  • EXPLORE / TŪHURA

    EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

    • We are EXPLORING energy by investigating light, sound and energy transformation


    Success Criteria:
    • Recall that all living things need energy.
    • Recall that the joule is a unit of energy. 
    • Define gravitational potential energy
    • Identify when something has gravitational potential energy


    Activities:

    • bouncing a ball and measuring the height bounced back up, relating back to gravitational potential energy
    • burning food practical - measuring the chemical energy in different foods
