Lesson 7: Energy Dissipation

• Clear learning objectives:
• Energy is transferred into useful energy when it is in a form that we need, in the place that we need it
• Energy is transferred into wasted energy when it’s not the form we want, in the place we want it
• Friction causes kinetic energy to be transferred to thermal energy
• Energy eventually transfers into the surroundings causing them to become a tiny bit warmer
• Energy spreads out, or dissipates, getting less useful
• Use as a stand-alone lesson or part of a sequence
• Full set of lesson resources
• PowerPoint presentation with embedded videos
• A quick and engaging starter to display on the board
• Original MM Science videos to supplement content
• Modelled calculations
• Real-life examples
• Differentiated worksheet activities and answers incorporated into lesson resources
• Additional videos to reinforce understanding of learning objectives
• Mini whiteboard multichoice questions as a quick test of learning
