January 5 and 6: Thermal Energy Transfer

Today I am…
investigating heat energy.


So that I can…
determine how thermal energy moves.


I will know I got it when…
I can identify how thermal energy is transferred with specific examples.

DAY 1: ACTIVITY --- This is where you investigate and learn!

You will be using a website that allows you to examine heat flow in virtual containers at different starting temperatures.

Virtual Energy Flow Investigations

Document --- HW: Q 1-7

DAY 2: Heat Transfer Demonstration

Experimental Question:

• What happens when a flask of hot water is placed inside a beaker of cold water?

• Write a hypothesis in regards to the experiment question.
• View the demonstration.

Document --- HW: Q 1-6 Cooling Curve Info and Q 4-6.
