When Kinetic Energy Changes - Physical Science Lesson. This lesson is intended for students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade. Your lesson also includes two BONUS activities - 'Crash Test Challenge - Activity' and 'Heat by Friction - Activity.'

✅ Comprehensive Overview – Covers how changes in motion cause energy transfer and temperature changes.

✅ Student + Teacher Versions: Includes editable PowerPoint and Google formats with fill-in-the-blank notes to keep students active and focused.

✅ Multimedia-Rich Lesson: Features diagrams and embedded videos to support visual and auditory learning.

✅ No Extra Prep Required: Just download, open, and start teaching.

This package includes the lesson (student and teacher versions of the presentation), one embedded video, a 4-question auto-graded Exit Ticket, a student lesson handout as a document, plus two bonus activities. The presentation is fun and applicable with many opportunities for inquiry-based learning and discussion.

In order, the lesson covers:

• What is Kinetic Energy?
• Kinetic Energy and Speed
• Kinetic Energy and Mass
• Energy Transfer – Into the Object
• Energy Transfer – Away From the Object
• Energy Transfer and Temperature Change

Included in the lesson package is:

• The teacher version of the presentation
• The student version of the presentation
• One embedded video
• An auto-graded Exit Ticket and a separate quiz with an answer key
• Student lesson handout
• 'Crash Test Challenge - Activity' and 'Heat by Friction - Activity'

The student version of the presentation contains multiple blanks that need to be filled in throughout the lesson. These blanks are conveniently underlined and bolded on the teacher copy. I have found this to be the most effective means of keeping my students engaged and active without having them write everything out. This also leaves more time for discussion and activities.

Google and Distance Learning Ready

• This lesson includes both Office and Google formats for ALL resources. The presentation is in PowerPoint and Google Slides while all documents contain Word and Google Doc versions.
• Your resource is perfect for distance learning and integrates seamlessly with Google Classroom as I've included a link that will automatically create a copy of the resources and put them directly into your Google Drive with one click.
• Purchase --> Open --> Click --> Assign to your students

Having both options allows you to use either without worrying about formatting issues as all the work has already been done for you. It safeguards you in case your department or school decides to go Google 100% and allows you as well as your students to access everything no matter where you are or what kind of equipment is being used.
