13. All forms of energy can be transformed
All forms of energy can be transformed. This means energy can change from one kind to another. . .

14. Energy is similar to a fairy tale in which there is a transformation. . .

15. Here’s one example. . . And then she becomes a frog too!
In the Princess and the frog, the princess kisses the frog. . .

16. How many fairy tale transformations can you name?

17. Discuss the following situations with your elbow partner. . .

18. Question: Can you identify the energy BEFORE and AFTER the transformation?

19. Electrical
Light + Heat

20. Chemical
Motion + Heat

21. Energy Transformation Cards With your partner

31. All energy can be divided into TWO types. . .
Potential
“Stored Energy”
Energy that has not been used. . .YET
Kinetic
“Active Energy”
Energy where something IS happening. . .NOW

32. ENERGY Kinetic Potential Sound Heat Elastic Nuclear Electrical Light
Gravitational
Chemical
Motion

33. How about in this example?
Potential Chemical Energy which has been stored in the battery is now being converted into
Kinetic Light Energy
Which is now traveling from the flashlight (it is DOING something!)

34. The opposite can also happen. . .
Kinetic Light Energy
Which is traveling (active) from the Sun to the plant can be converted into. . .
Potential Chemical Energy which will now be stored (waiting to be used) in the plant as sugar. . .
