Ac+vity: Finding Energy Stores and Transfers

Learning Objec+ve:- To recognize and describe energy stores and energy transfers in everyday
situa)ons using real-world examples.

Materials required:- Old magazines (can be cut), scissors, glue, A3 or large sheet of paper,
coloured pens or markers
Procedure:
1. Cut out pictures from magazines showing real-life situa)ons (e.g., cooking, sports, transport).
2. Glue the pictures onto the large sheet of paper.
3. Around each picture, label: Energy stores (e.g., chemical, thermal, kine)c, gravita)onal
poten)al), Energy transfers (e.g., electrical → sound, chemical → kine)c)

4. Use coloured pens to highlight different types of energy:
Red = Thermal, Blue = Kine)c, Green = Chemical, Purple = Gravita)onal
5. Include at least 3 labelled examples per poster.
6. Par)cipate in a gallery walk to view and discuss others' posters.

Conclusion: Energy is stored and transferred in many forms all around us.

Assessment Ques+ons:
1. What is the difference between an energy store and an energy transfer?
2. Look at one picture on your poster. Can you name two types of energy in it?
3. A boy is jumping on a trampoline. What energy stores and transfers are involved?
4. Why do moving objects always eventually stop if no one keeps pushing them? What energy
transfer is taking place?
