Kinetic Energy and Potential Energy Lesson Plans
These lessons are part of a complete Energy Unit (see link below)but can be taught independently. Two step-by-step Lesson Plans allow students to explore the concepts of kinetic energy and potential energy through a hands-on and engaging approach. Concepts include: -kinetic energy -potential energy -energy transfer -energy source -energy receiver In lesson 1, students will be creating and flying paper airplanes to discover kinetic and potential energy. They will use the data from their fligh
Potential and Kinetic Energy Cut and Paste Sorting Activity
This is a fun and engaging way to practice determining the difference between potential energy and kinetic energy! Students will read an event and decide if it is potential or kinetic energy, then glue the box in the correct column. An answer key is included. This is part of a BUNDLE
