Heat is a form of energy that can make objects do things like melt ice or make hot air balloons float. Sources of heat include natural sources like the sun or volcanoes as well as artificial sources like light bulbs or heaters. Temperature is a measure of how hot or cold something is and is measured in degrees Celsius, Fahrenheit, or Kelvin using a thermometer.

1. HEAT AND ENERGY
•Main Points:
1.Heat is a form of energy that makes
things hot.
2.Things that produce heat are called
sources of heat.
3.Temperature is a measure of how hot or
how cold something is.

2. Why is Heat a form of Energy?
• Energy is defined as the “ability to do work”, which
simply means anything that can make
objects/matter do things can be classified as
energy.
• Heat has the ability to make objects do things like
melting a cube of ice or making a hot air balloon
float in the air to name a few. Thus, heat is
considered a type of energy.

Sun Candle light
Volcano Light bulb
Human body Heater
Earth Flat iron

5. What is Temperature?
• Temperature is the measure of how hot something is. It
is measured in degrees Celsius (0C), degrees Fahrenheit
(0F) or degrees Kelvin (0K).
• We measure temperature using a thermometer.
