Explore Activity: Heat Transfer by Radiation Action Steps (Before We Can Start The Lab!) In your textbook on Page 83 read the Explore Activity. In your packet on Pages 14-15 fill in the blanks for the Purpose and Procedure, then write your Hypothesis

Expore Activity: Heat Transfer by Radiation Purpose In this lab, you will observe temperature variations due to the transfer of heat by radiation. Materials Construction paper, black and white (1 sheet each) Stapler Thermometers

Explore Activity: Heat Transfer by Radiation Procedure: Fold a piece of black construction paper in half lengthwise to form a sleeve into which a thermometer can be inserted. Use a stapler to secure the bottom and side of the sleeve. Use a piece of white construction paper to make a second sleeve. Use two identical thermometers to observe and record the room temperature. Insert one thermometer into the black sleeve. Insert the other thermometer into the white sleeve. Place the sleeves, including their thermometers, side-by-side in direct sunlight. Put them where nobody will touch them. After 15 minutes, observe and record the temperature reading on each thermometer.

Explore Activity: Heat Transfer by Radiation Data Collection Write the temperatures of both thermometers before and after (remember to write the units!) Analysis Questions How did the thermometer readings differ after 15 minutes? How did color affect the transfer of heat?

Anticipation Guide This is a chance for you to see how much you already know about what we are going to be studying. Write True or False in the box next to each statement. We will come back to this when we finish the chapter…

The Big Idea, CA Standards & Academic Vocabulary What is this chapter all about and what are we going to be learning? This activity will help you answer those questions! Action Steps (Packet Pages 11-13): Write The Big Idea (see Page 82 in your textbook). Read the California Standards and what they mean – when we finish the chapter you will write about why they matter! Finally, use the Glossary in your textbook to find the definitions of the academic vocabulary words listed.

Line of Learning We will do the Line of Learning each day at the end of class. You will have five minutes to write a few sentences about what you learned in class that day. When you are writing you should look at the objective for today – can you explain it? Today’s Objective: By the end of class, you should be able to explain how color can affect the transfer of heat.
