I like to use presentations for my students to follow easily the topic and also to study.

2. WHAT DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT...

3. WE WILL LEARN..
★ Types of Energy
★ Forms of Energy
★ Sources of Energy
★ Renewable and Non-renewal Energy

4. Energy - Task 1
Group Task:
● Draw a mind map
of what energy is
for us

5. Energy is the ability to work or
cause change.
There is energy in everything, and we use
energy for everything we do.

6. Energy

7. Types of Energy
There are 2 main types of energy:
★ POTENTIAL ENERGY
★ KINETIC ENERGY

8. Energy - Task 2
Let’s have a go and guess which type of energy
it is.
Teacher will use a ball, elastic band, ….

9. POTENTIAL or KINETIC ENERGY ?

10. POTENTIAL or KINETIC ENERGY ?

11. POTENTIAL or KINETIC ENERGY ?

12. POTENTIAL or KINETIC ENERGY ?

13. POTENTIAL or KINETIC ENERGY ?

14. Types of Energy
There are 2 main types of energy:
★ POTENTIAL ENERGY
★ KINETIC ENERGY

15. Potential Energy
● It is when the energy is
stored up in the object.
● This energy is ready to use
● The object does not move.

16. Kinetic Energy
It is when an object moves.
Every moving object has Kinetic energy.
The energy that a body gets because of its
motion is called kinetic energy.

17. Energy
★ Energy is everything that produces changes in
things.
★ It can be stored up
★ It is invisible.
★ It cannot be created, or cannot be destroyed, it only
transforms from one form to another

18. Forms of Energy
In these two types, there are many different forms of energy:
Mechanical Electrical Light
Sound Thermal-heat Solar
Nuclear Gravitational Chemical ----

19. Energy - Task 3
Individual task:
Use the 4 worksheets of energy and
build a interactive learning activity

20. Forms of Energy
There are different forms of energy:
MELTS...

21. Forms of Energy
Mechanical
Electrical
Light / solar
Thermal / heat
Sound

22. Forms of Energy
and also:
Chemical
Solar

23. Forms of Energy
So……

24. ENERGY IS ...
★ everything that produces changes in things.
★ invisible.
★ It does not have a volume or a mass, so energy
is NOT matter.
★ It does not create, it does not destroy, it only
transforms

25. Energy - Task 4
Individual task: Answer worksheet

26. Transformation of Energy
A transformation of energy is when one form of
energy changes into another form of energy.

27. Transformation of Energy
It can be transformed from one FORM into another,
examples:
○ The sun’s HEAT transforms into MECHANICAL energy,
when it heats up the air and it begins to move, creating
wind.
○ The sun’s LIGHT transforms into CHEMICAL energy, when
plants make their food through photosynthesis.

28. Transformation of Energy
It can be transformed from one FORM into another:
○ Potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy
○ Kinetic energy is transformed into thermal energy
○ Chemical energy is transformed into heat energy
○ Chemical energy is transformed into Mechanical energy

29. HOW DO WE OBTAIN ENERGY?
Energy sources are the natural resources from
which we obtain the energy to use:
★ RENEWABLE SOURCES, practically
INEXHAUSTING (never finishes)
★ Non-RENEWABLE SOURCES,
EXHAUSTING, WILL FINISH

30. SOURCES OF Energy
RENEWABLE SOURCES

31. SOURCES OF Energy
RENEWABLE SOURCES
Solar Wind wood
Agricultural waste water
❖ These sources have not been traditionally used as Energy
source
❖ However, these sources will always be available in nature and
are renewable,

32. SOURCES OF Energy
Non-RENEWABLE SOURCES

33. SOURCES OF Energy
Non-RENEWABLE SOURCES
fossil fuels radioactive substances
❖ They need long time to form, millions of years
❖ We are exhausting these sources because we consume them
quicker than they form
❖ They do not have time to renew themselves.

34. LET’S see the Sources of Energy:
★ The biggest source of energy is our Sun
★ Some other sources are:
○ coal
○ wood Primary sources of energy are from the
○ wind NATURE, it is in his natural state.
○ water
○ Food Secondary sources of energy have a
○ Electricity transformation from the primary sources

35. USES OF ENERGY SOURCES
Electricity
Transportation
Cooking
Sun
Coal
Water
Oil
Gas

36. WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED?

37. Energy - Task 5
Individual task:
MINDMAP
NEW VOCABULARY
