1. Energy Transformations and Conservation

2. Forms of Energy Name at least three forms of energy you see in the picture. Tell how you know it’s that form of energy.

3. Turn and Talk: Infer what could have happened 2 seconds after this picture was taken?

4. Turn and Talk: When you bounce a ball, why doesn’t it bounce as high the second time, or the third, or the fourth?

5. Conservation Energy is the ability to create a change in matter.

6. Conservation Energy is conserved when a change occurs. Like mass, energy cannot be created or destroyed.

7. Conservation Energy can only be transformed into other forms of energy. Often, a lot of energy is lost to heat.

8. Example:

10. Energy Transformation/Conservation Lab Use the handout to write notes as you rotate through each of the 12 station. When you are done, fill in the summary question
