Unit/Lesson Title/Number: Heat Energy Lesson #1-Intro to Heat Energy Context and Class Profile 8th Period- 6 IEPs, 22 students 9th Period- 4 IEPs, 19 students

Common Core Standards

Assessed: 4.1d Different forms of energy include heat, light, electrical, mechanical, sound, nuclear, and chemical. Energy is transformed in many ways. 4.1e Energy can be considered to be either kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion, or potential energy, which depends on relative position 4.2a Heat moves in predictable ways, flowing from warmer objects to cooler ones, until both reach the same temperature. 4.2b Heat can be transferred through matter by the collisions of atoms and/or molecules (conduction) or through space (radiation). In a liquid or gas, currents will facilitate the transfer of heat (convection). 4.2d Most substances expand when heated and contract when cooled. Water is an exception, expanding when changing to ice.

Interdisciplinary Connections

Part of Physical Science

21st Century Skills Lesson Objectives


Label : (Blooms Taxonomy)

1. Students will be able to describe the three different types of heat energy. 2. Students will be able to explain the effect of heat on atoms.

Acceptable Evidence
*Could be collected for accountability and/or auditing purposes.

1. Homework 2. Homework

Procedure Teacher input, development, instructional method(s), modeling, guided practice, independent practice, and/or activities Label: Bell Ringer Also may be called: set induction, anticipatory set, introduction/review,

The teacher will hand back the quizzes from the previous day. The teacher will ask if there are any questions on the quiz and will review any of the questions if needed. The students will be given a minute to answer the bell-ringer for the day define kinetic energy and give an example of an item that has kinetic energy. The teacher will ask the students to give a few answers for the bell ringer. The PowerPoint notes for the day will be started. The students are expected to take notes during the lesson.

Do Now, Write Now, Silent Starter Label: Transitions Label: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic Accommodations for learning modalities Label: Checks for Understanding: directions, procedures/routines, and/or content (formative) Label: Evidence of Cognitive Student Engagement (CSE) Label: Closure

A PhET simulation will be shown during the notes to demonstrate that heat changes how fast particles move (http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/states-of-matterbasics). The teacher will do a short demonstration that has students place their hand on a piece of tin foil and a piece of paper towel. The students should notice that the tin foil is cooler to touch. The teacher will explain that this is because the foil is good at conducting heat and the hand gives the heat, leaving it feeling cool. The teacher will also do a demonstration that shows convection. A colored ice cube will be placed in a cup of water. The cool water will sink while the warmer water rises. The PowerPoint will be finished.

Closure: The students will do a fishbowl activity. They will write down one question on an index card and fold it in half. The question will be stuck in a bin and the teacher will draw the card, read it, and see if any other student can answer that question before giving an answer.

Assessment/ Evaluation
Label formative or summative, describe purpose, and provide grading/feedback method.

1. Chapter 48 Homework (formative)-the homework will be used to determine if there is material that needs to be presented in a different way.

Technology The SmartBoard will be used to display the PowerPoint notes.


Describe type and purpose. Include a back-up plan.

Academic Language required for the lesson

Students will learn that heat energy is a form of kinetic energy.
