Today we started chapter 5: Energy and Energy resources.
We set up the notes for lesson 1 forms of energy. We then started our understanding of energy by
starting the Simple Sand Lab. We are taking a cup of sand and testing its initial temperature and the shaking it for 10 minutes. We then take the temperature of the sand again and discuss why the temperature went up in the sand.
Here are the notes
