What colour was the fastest to fill the jar? And why?
Students had a great time doing a science experiment today. Please ask them to explain what thermal energy is and how did they measure it? What tool did they use to measure thermal energy? Please answer in the comment box below. Click this post and a comment box will appear. 👌
There is no Home Reading this week and Mr. Fong is hoping that students can bring in a shoebox tomorrow if possible. No worries if you don’t have one. Thank you!

Red because we learned that hot energy means that the atoms go crazy So the food colouring gets connected and spreads very fast.

Thermal energy is the heat energy an object has because of the movement of its molecules and heat can be transferred from one object to another object. We use thermometers to measure heat.

We used a thermometer. It was fun.

Aodhan’s answer: There are three types of thermal energy:liquid and solid and gas.
Start off with ice and it turns to water then heat it it can make (gas) steam
Measured with a thermometer
