Learning Target: 
  • I can describe transfers of energy through a system
HOWLs Target:
  • I keep working until the task is complete.
Agenda
  • Warm-up: TRANSFERS #3 (2min)
    • How does energy change when boiling water causes a teakettle to whistle? Describe the energy transformations.
  • Rube Goldberg machines
  • Project
    • Develop a plan for a Rube Goldberg machine
      • must have 6 energy transfers
      • must have 4 different types of energy
      • must have 1 form of "lost" energy
      • must have descriptions of the transfers and energies that demonstrate general understanding of the types of energy
      • must have a description of how the machine demonstrates the law of conservation of energy
      • instead of Goldberg machine, use another system such as nuclear power plant, or pencil sharpener
Homework:
  • Energy transformation and conservation of energy test, moved to Tuesday 4/11
