Cannon 9/23 Demonstrations of Conduction, Convection, and Radiation

Teacher: Robert Cannon and Patrick Mickey

Unit/Session: Thermal Energy and Heat Transfer - Heat Transfer Methods Demonstrations

Date of Instruction:  9/23/21

Standard/s: 28P2d.

 Plan and carry out investigations on the effects of heat transfer on molecular motion as it

relates to the collision of atoms (conduction), through space (radiation), or in currents in a

liquid or a gas (convection).

Learning Target/ Teaching Point: 

I can explain how thermal energy is transferred through matter or empty space and how to keep heat from flowing, and explain what happens to particle motion when energy is added or removed from matter.

Success Criteria: 

• Define thermal energy (heat)

• Describe what happens to matter when energy is added or removed.

• List the 3 state changes that involve adding energy

• List the 3 state changes that involve removing energy

• List the 3 forms of heat and define each with one word

• Describe how thermal energy moves through materials

• Define conductors and insulators

• Describe how thermal energy moves through liquid and gasses

• Describe how thermal energy moves through empty space

• Describe which states of matter can be affected by each method of heat.

Opening (I Do)

An engaging process for lesson introduction that is specifically planned to encourage equitable and purposeful student participation. Describe the instructional process that will be used to introduce the lesson.

WARRIOR 5:

INTRODUCTION/CONNECTION:

DIRECT INSTRUCTION:

Students will be given a worksheet that will allow them to record observations, opinions, and results involving the day’s demonstrations.

Students face to face will have demonstrations to view and discuss.  In the event of student absence or teacher absence, please refer to the video link below for a similar experience.

Work Period  (We Do, You Do)

Students learning by doing/demonstrating learning expectations.  Describe the instructional process that will be used to engage the students in the work period.

TKES 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7. 8,10

GUIDED PRACTICE:  

We will complete various demonstrations together that allow students to experience Conduction, Convection and Radiation.

INDEPENDENT/COLLABORATIVE PRACTICE/DIFFERENTIATION:

Students will summarize the day’s demonstrations and discuss findings with their neighbors.

*Developing Learners will work together using flexible grouping and peer support to complete this exercise

*Distinguished Learners will continue to explore specific heat capacities of various materials.

Closing  (We Check)

Describe the instructional process that will be used to close the lesson and check for student understanding .
