Energy Bingo

Energy BINGO Find people around the room who can answer the statements Write their name in the corresponding box on your bingo card http: //need. org/energybingo First person to fill their BINGO card gets a prize!

Overview of Powering Our Future Renewable Energy Curriculum Materials 3 modules • 4 th-6 th • 6 th-8 th • High School (solar-focused) Written by Environmental Education Exchange with the help of over 70 local teachers and administrators Correlated to College and Career Readiness State Standards NGS Standards being implemented Wealth of activities, but also a springboard for digging deeper in renewable energies

Energy Literacy

Resources What are Natural resources? What are Renewable resources? What are Nonrenewable resources?

Resources and Electricity What resources are used to generate electricity? Which resources used to generate electricity are renewable? What is Clean Energy?

Energy Literacy What are all the things students/people should know about energy? Brainstorm your ideas on Post-it notes Organize your ideas on chart paper Justify your thinking

Forms of Energy 6 -8, Unit 1, Lesson 3 Energy Transformations

What is energy? Ability to do work or cause change Produces Warmth Produces Light Produces Sound Produces Movement Produces Growth

Classes of Energy Potential • Stored energy or energy of position • Gravitational • Nuclear • Chemical Kinetic • • • Energy of motion Motion Electrical Sound Radiant Thermal

Potential Energy Gravitational Energy • Energy an object or substance has because of its position • Anything “up high”

Potential Energy Nuclear Energy • Energy stored in the nucleus of an atom Holds the atom together

Potential Energy Perspective Drawing Chemical Energy The energy Holds molecules together stored in the bonds between atoms Molecular Formula

Kinetic Energy Mechanical (Motion) Energy Movement of objects or substances from one place to another

Kinetic Energy Electrical Energy Movement of electrons NOT AN ELECTRON PARADE!

Kinetic Energy Sound Energy Movement of energy through substances in the form of longitudinal/compression waves

Kinetic Energy Radiant Energy Electromagnetic energy that travels in transverse waves

Kinetic Energy Thermal (Heat) Energy Internal energy of a substance due to the vibration of atoms and molecules making up the substance

Energy Transfers No energy transfer is 100% efficient. Energy will always transfer from high to low. Energy can not be created nor destroyed, only changed. • Law of Conservation of Energy • First Law of Thermodynamics

Can Natural Resources Do It All? POF Website, Module 6 -8, Unit 1, Lesson 1

Where Does Arizona Get Electricity? There are 10 sections. Try to think of all the resources Arizona uses. Assign a value to each.

How is Electrical Energy Generated? Coal Plant Simulation Adapted from NEED. org, Primary Energy Stories and More, “A Cool Coal Story”

Where Does Arizona Get Electricity? There are 10 sections. Try to think of all the resources Arizona uses. Assign a value to each.

Energy Sources Jigsaw With your group, read your assigned expert passage to learn about your form of energy Write what you have learned on your poster • • Definition Facts Important to Know Challenges Definition Facts/ Characteristics (your own words) Benefit Challenges

Break time!
