Kinetic and Potential Energy Card Sort

The kinetic and potential energy card sort is comprised of 28 cards and is a great way for students to practice identifying the two different types of energy. Each card has a description and an image.

Simply print and then cut out the set of cards [laminate if you wish to make class sets]. Students then shuffle the cards and sort them into their correct sets [kinetic and potential]. Once sorted students write their answers onto the answer sheets provided [single A4 size or double A5 size]. Includes an answer key.

Can be printed in colour or greyscale.

Also comes with 4 blank cards for you or your students to make their own individual cards. Works great as a starter activity, plenary, review or for science stations.

Cards included:

➸ 2 title cards
➸ 2 definition cards
➸ 12 kinetic energy cards
➸ 12 potential energy cards
➸ 4 blank cards
