Te wera hoki- Hot stuff

Today for Pūtaiao we learnt about ENERGY. 

Did you know that;

  • Energy is the ability to do work
  • energy is in everything
  • we use energy for everything that we do
  • There are many forms of energy
  • There are two main types of energy
  • Kinetic - energy that is in motion
  • Potential - stored energy.
One activity was to match ngā kāri (cards). One set of kāri named the different type of energy, the other had ngā pikitia (pictures) of images with the form of energy.


              



We came together, and confirmed our thinking. One was tricky, chemical energy - pākā (burger).


We then had to decide what type of energy they each were.
K = Kinetic - energy that is in motion
P = Potential - stored energy.

We now have a very good understanding of energy and the many different forms it comes in.
