We are currently talking all about energy, energy is the ability to do work, there are three different types of energy, this includes light, heat and sound.

Can you look around yourself and identify the various energy sources for objects? What type of energy is a boiling kettle, the radio, the toaster, a flashlight, a burning candle, a sprinkler, wind chimes, your brother laughing?

Part 2: Today we moved from being able to identify the different types of energy to generating our very own list of objects that produce either heat, light or sound energy (sometimes more than one type of energy can be produced!). Let’s see if you can categorize the following ideas into the correct energy source: the shaking of a water bottle, glow in the dark toys, a rock splash in the lake, the wind, a baseboard heater, flashlight, a wolf howl, moonlight, train whistle and sunlight.
