ENERGY
Energy is the ability to do work, that is, to move or change something. Forms of energy
Forms of energy are the ways energy is used.
There are many different forms of energy like heat energy, light energy, and sound energy

👩‍🏫 Hello, primary one students! Today, we are going to learn about sources of energy. Sources of energy are different ways we can get energy to do things. Let’s explore some examples together! 🌞

The first source of energy we will talk about is the Sun ☀️. The Sun provides us with light and heat energy. During a warm and bright day, the Sun gives us light so we can see around us. It also gives us heat, which makes the day feel warm.

Next, let’s think about ourselves. When we walk, talk, and play, we need energy to do those activities. Where does this energy come from? It comes from the food we eat 🍎. Our bodies convert the food into energy, which helps us move and do things.

Now, let’s talk about vehicles like cars and bikes 🚗🚲. These vehicles need energy to run on the road. The energy they use comes from a fuel called gasoline ⛽️. When we put gasoline in the car or bike, it helps them move and go from one place to another.

Have you ever listened to the radio in a car? 📻 The radio runs on electrical energy, which is stored in the car’s battery 🔋. This energy powers the radio and allows us to listen to our favorite songs and stories.

Now, let’s think about flying kites 🪁. How do they go up in the sky? It’s because of wind energy 💨. The wind provides the energy needed to lift the kite and make it fly high in the sky.

When we slide down a plane or roll down a hill, we experience another type of energy called gravitational energy. It’s the energy that comes from gravity, which pulls things down. This energy helps us slide or roll.

Cooking food requires heat energy 🔥. When we use a stove or an oven, they provide heat energy to cook our food and make it delicious.

Finally, let’s talk about the sound of a ringing bell 🔔. When the bell rings, it produces sound energy. This energy travels through the air and reaches our ears, letting us know that dinner is ready! 🍽️

So, primary one students, we have learned about different sources of energy. Remember, the Sun provides us with light and heat energy, we get energy from the food we eat, vehicles use gasoline for energy, radios run on electrical energy, wind energy helps kites fly, gravitational energy helps us slide and roll, heat energy cooks our food, and sound energy lets us know when it’s time to eat. Great job today! 😊👏

USES OF ENERGY

👩‍🏫 Hello, primary one students! Today, we are going to learn more about energy and how we use it in our daily lives. Energy is important for many things around us, such as heating and cooling our homes, lighting our rooms, and making our machines work. Let’s explore this topic further with some examples! 🔌💡

First, let’s talk about our homes, schools, and businesses. We need energy to heat and cool these places. In the cold weather, we use energy to make our rooms warm and cozy 🏠❄️. We can do this by using heaters or fireplaces that produce heat energy. On the other hand, during hot weather, we use energy to cool our rooms and make them comfortable. Air conditioners are an example of devices that use energy to provide cool air. It’s important to remember that we should use energy wisely to conserve resources and protect the environment.

Energy is also needed for lights and appliances. When we turn on the light switch, the light bulb uses electrical energy to produce light 💡⚡️. Appliances like televisions, refrigerators, and washing machines also use energy to perform their functions. These appliances make our lives easier and more convenient.

Now, let’s think about transportation. Energy is what makes our vehicles go! Cars, buses, trains, and bikes all need energy to move from one place to another 🚗🚌✈️⛵️. Cars and buses use gasoline or electricity as their energy source. Planes use fuel to fly through the sky, and boats use energy to sail across the water. Without energy, these vehicles wouldn’t be able to take us where we need to go.

But energy isn’t just for machines and vehicles. All living things need energy too, including plants, animals, and people. Plants use energy from the sun to grow and make their own food through a process called photosynthesis 🌱☀️. Animals, including us humans, eat plants and use the energy stored in the food we consume. This energy is like fuel for our bodies, providing us with the power and strength to move, play, and learn 🏃‍♀️🥦💪.

Our bodies can also produce heat energy. Have you ever noticed that when you run or work really hard, your body feels warm? That’s because your body is producing heat energy as a result of the effort you’re putting in. When it’s cold outside, we can wear clothing like jackets to keep in that heat energy and stay warm. The jacket acts as insulation, preventing the heat from escaping and keeping us comfortable in chilly weather 🏃‍♂️🧥❄️.

So, primary one students, we have learned that energy is essential for heating and cooling our surroundings, powering our lights and appliances, making vehicles move, growing plants, providing fuel for our bodies, and even generating heat energy. Remember to appreciate and conserve energy, as it is a valuable resource for our everyday lives. Great job today! 😊👏

We use energy to heat and cool our homes, schools, and businesses. We use energy for lights and appliances. Energy makes our vehicles go, planes fly, boats sail, and machines run.
All living things need energy too. Plants use the light from the sun to grow. Animals and people eat the plants and use the energy that was stored. Food is fuel for our bodies’ energy needs like muscle power.
We also use our own bodies to make heat energy. When you have been running or working really hard, your body produces heat energy. When you wear clothing like a jacket in the winter, it holds in that heat energy and keeps you warm.

Sun

👩‍🏫 Welcome back, primary one students! Today, we will continue our exploration of light as a form of energy and the different sources from which it can come. Let’s dive in further with some examples! 💡🌞

As we discussed before, light is a form of energy that allows us to see the world around us. There are various sources of light, both natural and artificial. Let’s start with the natural sources:

1. The Sun ☀️: The Sun is the primary natural source of light on Earth. It provides us with sunlight, which illuminates our days and makes everything visible.

2. Stars ✨: Stars in the night sky also emit light. They twinkle and shine, giving us a beautiful spectacle when the sky is dark.

3. Fire 🔥: Fire is another natural source of light. When we light a match or a candle, the flame produces light, enabling us to see in the darkness.

4. Electricity in storms ⚡️: During thunderstorms, lightning flashes across the sky, producing a bright burst of light. This natural phenomenon is caused by electrical energy in the atmosphere.

In addition to these natural sources, there are fascinating examples of living organisms that can produce their own light. This phenomenon is called bioluminescence:

1. Fireflies ✨: Fireflies are insects that emit a glowing light. They use this light to communicate with each other and attract mates.

2. Jellyfish 🌊: Some species of jellyfish possess bioluminescent cells that allow them to emit a soft, glowing light underwater.

3. Mushrooms 🍄: Certain types of mushrooms can produce a faint glow in the dark forest. This bioluminescence is a captivating sight.

Now, let’s move on to artificial sources of light. These are created by humans to illuminate our surroundings:

1. Flashlights 🔦: Flashlights are handheld devices that emit a focused beam of light. They are portable and commonly used for illumination in the dark.

2. Table lamps 💡: Table lamps are stationary light sources placed on tables or desks. They provide localized lighting for specific areas.

3. Neon signs ✨: Neon signs are made of brightly colored glass tubes filled with gas that emits light when an electric current passes through them. They are often used for advertising or decoration.

4. Televisions 📺: Televisions emit light to display images and videos. They use electrical energy to produce the illuminated screen that we see.

Most man-made sources of light require an energy source to function, such as electricity or batteries. For example:

1. Candle 🕯️: Candles produce light when the wick is lit, and the flame burns. The heat from the flame melts the wax, providing fuel for the flame to continue producing light.

2. Torchlight 🔦: Torchlights, similar to flashlights, require batteries to power the light-emitting mechanism. When switched on, they emit a steady beam of light.

3. Electric lamp 💡: Electric lamps, like table lamps, rely on electricity to produce light. When plugged into a power source, they illuminate the room with a soft glow.

Lastly, let’s not forget the Sun, which we discussed earlier as a natural source of light. The Sun is an immense source of light and energy. Its rays reach the Earth, providing us with sunlight during the day and allowing us to see the world around us.

So, primary one students, we have explored natural sources of light such as the Sun, stars, fire, and electricity in storms. We have also discussed artificial sources like flashlights, table lamps, neon signs, and televisions. Remember that these sources either harness natural energy or require an energy source to produce light. Fantastic job today! 😊👏

Sound is a type of energy made by vibrations. When any object vibrates, it causes movement in the air particles. These particles bump into the particles close to them, which makes them vibrate too causing them to bump into more air particles. This movement, called sound waves, keeps going until they run out of energy.
Sound is created when something vibrates and sends waves of energy (vibration) into our ears. The vibrations travel through the air or another medium (solid, liquid or gas) to the ear. The stronger the vibrations, the louder the sound. Sounds are fainter the further you get from the sound source..
THINGS WHICH MAKE SOUND
Sound is made up of vibrations, or sound waves, that we can hear. These sound waves are formed by objects vibrating (shaking back and forth). Sound waves travel through air, water, and solid objects as vibrations. When they reach our ears, these waves make the delicate skin of the eardrums vibrate.

[mediator_tech]

Sound is a form of energy that is produced by vibrations. When an object vibrates, it causes the air particles around it to also vibrate, creating sound waves. These sound waves travel through different mediums, such as air, water, or solid objects, and can be heard when they reach our ears. Let’s delve deeper into this topic with some additional information and examples! 🎶👂

Sound is created when an object vibrates, causing the air particles around it to move. These air particles then collide with neighboring particles, transferring the vibrations and creating a chain reaction. This series of vibrating particles forms sound waves that propagate through the air or other mediums. These waves carry the energy of the vibrations and enable us to hear sound.

The volume or loudness of a sound depends on the strength or intensity of the vibrations. When an object vibrates strongly, it produces more powerful vibrations, resulting in a louder sound. On the other hand, if the vibrations are weaker, the sound will be softer or fainter.

Now, let’s explore some examples of things that produce sound:

1. Musical Instruments: Musical instruments like guitars, pianos, drums, and trumpets produce sound when their strings, keys, or membranes vibrate.

2. Human Voice: When we speak, sing, or shout, our vocal cords vibrate, producing sound waves that create the sound of our voice.

3. Animals: Various animals, such as birds, dogs, cats, and whales, produce sounds to communicate or express themselves. Their vocal cords or other body parts vibrate to create these sounds.

4. Electronic Devices: Devices like speakers, telephones, radios, and televisions use electrical signals to vibrate a diaphragm or other components, producing sound waves.

5. Nature: Natural phenomena, such as thunder, rain, wind, and waves crashing against the shore, create sound through vibrations in the environment.

When sound waves reach our ears, they cause our eardrums to vibrate. These vibrations are then converted into electrical signals, which are sent to our brain. Our brain processes these signals and allows us to perceive and interpret the sound.

It’s important to note that sound waves require a medium, such as air, water, or solid objects, to travel. In a vacuum, where there is no air or matter, sound cannot propagate because there are no particles to vibrate and transmit the sound waves.

So, primary one students, we have learned that sound is created by vibrations and travels through air, water, or solid objects as sound waves. We have explored examples such as musical instruments, the human voice, animals, electronic devices, and natural phenomena that produce sound. Sound is an incredible form of energy that allows us to enjoy music, communicate, and experience the world around us. Great job today! 🎶👏

HOW ENERGY CAN BE GENERATED
Chemical – Chemical energy comes from atoms and molecules and how they interact.
Electrical – Electrical energy is generated by the movement of electrons.
Gravitational – Large objects such as the Earth and the Sun create gravity and gravitational energy.
Heat – Heat energy is also called thermal energy. It comes from molecules of different temperatures interacting.
Light – Light is called radiant energy. The Earth gets a lot of its energy from the light of the Sun.
Motion – Anything that is moving has energy. This is also called kinetic energy.
Nuclear – Huge amounts of nuclear energy can be generated by splitting atoms.

Potential – Potential energy is energy that is stored. One example of this is a spring that is pressed all the way down. Another example is a book sitting high on a shelf
