Grade 7 Radiation Notes and Eureka Video

Radiation

·        Radiant energy is the transfer of energy by invisible waves given off by the energy source

·        These invisible waves are called infrared waves (a type of electromagnetic wave from the sun)

·        Infrared waves are given off by all heat sources, including you

·        Heat is radiant energy from the sun that reaches your skin

·        Radiant energy warms up objects when the waves of radiant energy come into contact with matter making the particles vibrate faster

Grade 7 Convection Notes and Eureka Video

Convection

·        Convection - The transfer of thermal energy by moving particles in fluids

·        As the particles of fluids (gases and liquids) are heated, they move faster and expand; this expansion makes the fluids less dense so they rise

·        When warmer fluids rise, cooler fluids move downwards; this creates a “convection current”

·        The convection current continues in a pot of soup because the warmer soup particles in a pot cool when they make contact with the air and then sink. These particles are heated again once they meet the bottom of the pot.

·        Convection currents help heat your home through your furnace heating system.

Grade 6 Create a Creature Success Criteria

Create a Creature Success Criteria

·       A minimum of 3 invertebrates are researched

·       Physical characteristics relate back to the invertebrates you chose – explain what parts of your 3 invertebrates are included in your new species

·       The drawing resembles the invertebrates researched

·       All information about the invertebrates is accurate

·       The habitat relates to chosen invertebrates (doesn’t have to be all three)

·       The food your creature eats should relate somewhat to the invertebrates chosen e.g., a ant/fly/snail won’t eat a cow

·       A reasonable explanation for adaptations is included

·       Poster is organized with a title, subtitles, printed text and a neat drawing

·       Include a classification of the species – can be creative

·       Date and name

·       Use proper scientific terms

·       Write in a clear font

·       Include your sources!

Grade 7 Chapter 10 Study Guide

Please review the following for the text on April 15th:

Section 10.1

• The 10 forms of energy
• Examples of energy transformations

Section 10.2

• Understand the difference between thermal energy, temperature, and heat
• Review examples of renewable and non-renewable energy
• Key Terms: fossil fuels, waste heat

Section 10.3

• Review the 6 changes of state
• How does the particle theory explains changes of state? (page 296)
• Heat can affect the volume of solids, liquids, and gases - how does the particle theory explain this?
• Provide examples of how we apply the knowledge of expansion and contraction of solids, liquids and gases; e.g., we leave spaces at the top of bottles to allow for the expansion of liquids if they are heated.

Section 10.4

• Review the three types of heat transfer; conduction, convection, and radiation and provide examples of each
• How do we apply our understanding of the three types of heat transfer, e.g, we wear oven mitts when taking hot things out of the oven.
