Grade 4 · Science · Lesson 35

Conduct energy experiments

Energy is the ability to do work or cause change. It appears in many forms and can transform from one type to another — but it is never created or destroyed. In this project lesson you will review what you have learned about energy forms, heat transfer, and electrical circuits.

What this lesson teaches

1Identify the main forms of energy: light, heat, sound, electrical, kinetic, and potential
2Explain how energy transforms from one form to another
3Describe the three methods of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation
4Recall key facts about electrical circuits and energy from prior units
