Intro.......................................................
- by teachers prior to parents coming in.
Who knows the difference between heat and temperature?
Heat = a type of energy
Temperature = the measure of heat energy
Hold up a thermometer - How many of you know what this is? what is it used for? Has your mom ever measured your temperature when you were sick?
How can you increase the temperature of something?
Fire
Soak in the sun
- Tell the kids to rub their hands together, can they feel their hands heat up? - friction makes heat too!
Tell
them to take their warm hands, and touch something that is colder -
like the metal bar on their desk, can they warm up the bar? Heat flows from hot to cold until both objects have the same temp.
Stations!..........................................................
Short version (scroll down for long version)
***It's actually pretty hard to pop the balloons, it seems to work better to rub a balloon on the carpet, then to rub two balloons together - so just rub one balloon on the carpet - let them feel it getting warmed up before popping it - then continue to rub it on the carpet until it pops. (Adult will need to do this - you have to rub pretty hard!)
Don't actually start a fire, but you can talk about how they can!
Rub their hand on something smooth - like their desk top, and then rub their hands on something rough - like the carpet. Which generates the most friction?
Station#2 Light Energy...................................
Glow in the dark paint - Thank you Vivian!
The paint soaks up light energy, then slowly releases it in the dark.
Put the jar with paint on it into a dark box - let kids look through peep hole in the box at the glowing paint.
Station #3 Sound Energy..............................
Put water in a dish, put rubber bands around it. The sounds waves will vibrate the water, so you can see the sound in the water.
Save your oatmeal containers! You can put rice in the bottom, and watch/listen to the rice jump around from the vibrations too.
