Energy Continued
We moved right along in our study of energy by discussing potential and kinetic energy. Students learned that potential energy is stored energy, and kinetic energy is energy of motion.
This WatchKnowLearn.com video links to a song about potential and kinetic energy that the students loved!

We also created Popsicle Stick Chain Reactions to demonstrate the stored energy in the popsicle sticks changing to kinetic energy.
Here is a slo-mo video from our class!
Isn't is AWESOME?

*Note: The BIGGER the popsicle sticks, the BETTER the chain! It is easier to control the larger sticks, especially with smaller hands. :)
