Monday, August 31, 2015 – Friday, September 4, 2015
Unit Overview
The focus will be for students to recognize the properties and sources of different forms of energy including mechanical, electrical, chemical, radiant (solar), and thermal
energy.
By the end of the 6th grade students should demonstrate a clear understanding of what energy is, how it can be conserved, transferred, and transformed, and its role in the
physical, life, and earth sciences.
Instruction should be limited to an introduction to the different types of energy and the general idea that the total amount of energy never increases or decreases, but can be
changed from one form to another, or transferred from one place to another. By the end of this unit of study students should demonstrate a conceptual understanding of
how matter is made of tiny particles called atoms, and that all matter contains energy that can be transferred or transformed, but not created or destroyed. Students should
be able to describe each of the forms of energy (mechanical, electrical, chemical, radiant, and thermal). However, it is not essential for students to obtain a complete
understanding of each form of energy at this point in the year.
2014 SC Academic Standards
6. P.3: The student will demonstrate an understanding of the properties of energy, the transfer and conservation of energy, and the relationship between energy and forces.
Targeted Learning Indicators
6. P.3A.1: Analyze and interpret data to describe the properties and compare sources of different forms of energy (including mechanical, electrical, chemical, radiant, and
thermal).
6.P.3A.2: Develop and use models to exemplify the conservation of energy as it is transformed from kinetic to potential (gravitational and elastic) and vice versa.

light, ultraviolet light, or x-rays

chemical bonds in matter
 Electrical energy is the energy flowing in
electrical currents

content
motion (kinetic) and position (potential) of an
object
 The Law of Conservation of Energy states that energy
cannot be created nor destroyed
 Energy can be transformed (converted) from one
form to another
 Energy can be transferred from one object to
another
 The total amount of energy does not change
energy.
 The charges of electrons and protons in a stable
atom are neutral (e.g., Hydrogen atom has one
electron and one proton) and that is what holds the
atom together.
 Fission occurs when a neutron strikes the nucleus of
an atom causing the atom to split.
 The product of fission is two new stable atoms and
several free neutrons.
 Energy (in the form of mainly heat and some light) is
released from the atom when it splits.
GT Requirements:
 Nuclear energy is energy that is stored in
the nucleus or center core of an atom.
 The nuclear energy is what holds the nucleus
together.
 Fusion is a way of combing atoms to create a new
atom.
 Fission is a way of splitting an atom to create a new
atom.
 Nuclear power plants use fission to create energy.
Enduring Understanding
Energy manifests itself in multiple forms, such as mechanical (kinetic energy and
potential energy), electrical, chemical, radiant (solar), and thermal energy. According
to the principle of conservation of energy, energy cannot be created nor destroyed,
but it can be transferred from one place to another and transformed between
systems.
Overarching Essential Questions
The overarching questions are based on the targeted learning indicators for this unit.
Students should be able to answer these questions by the end of this instructional
unit.

Cross Cutting Concepts (CCCs)
Cross Cutting Concepts (CCCs) are reoccurring themes that are evident in all domains of science and engineering. They transcend the boundaries of disciplines and serve
to help students create a framework for connecting knowledge across disciplines. Instruction of CCCs should not be isolated, but rather teachers must plan to include
intentional references to the CCCs within their science instruction.
The following Cross Cutting Concepts and a description of their relevance to this unit of study have been identified:
Patterns: Patterns can be observed as energy is transferred and transformed.
Cause and Effect: Energy is never created or destroyed, but is transferred from one object or place to another object or place by the motion of particles. Energy can be
transformed from one form to another form.
Scale, Quantity, and Proportion: The total energy of matter depends on the type, state, amount, and motion of the matter.
Systems and system models: Models can be used to demonstrate how energy is stored, transferred, and transformed.
Energy and Matter: Flows, cycles, and conservation: Energy may take different forms. The transfer of energy can be tracked.
Structure and Function: The structure of matter affects the amount of energy.
Stability and Change: Energy can be transferred and transformed, but never created or destroyed.

Career Connections
Electrical Engineer
An electrical engineer designs, develops, and tests the manufacturing and installation of electrical equipment, components, or systems. An electrical engineer may work in
industry, the military, or in scientific research. An electrical engineer plans and implements research methodology and procedures to apply principles of electrical theory to
engineering projects.
Electrician
An electrician installs, maintains, and repairs electrical wiring, equipment, and fixtures. They use their knowledge of circuits to make sure that all the electric wiring in your
house is safe and does not catch fire. They also will “string” wires from an electric generating plant to give electric power to houses, schools and businesses.
Heating Mechanic
Heating mechanics and installers—also called technicians—install, maintain, and repair heating and ventilation systems. Heating mechanics and installers are adept at using a
variety of tools, including hammers, wrenches, metal snips, electric drills, pipe cutters and benders, measurement gauges, and acetylene torches, to work with air ducts. They
use voltmeters, thermometers, pressure gauges, and other testing devices to check airflow, electrical circuits, burners, and other components.
Mechanical Engineer
Mechanical engineers research, develop, design, manufacture, and test tools, engines, machines, and other mechanical devices. They work on power-producing machines
such as electric generators, internal combustion engines, and steam and gas turbines. Mechanical engineers also design tools that other engineers need for their work.
Physicist
Physicists explore and identify basic principles and laws governing motion and gravity, the generation and transfer between energy, and the interaction of matter and energy.
Physicists design and perform experiments with lasers, telescopes, mass spectrometers, and other equipment. On the basis of their observations and analysis, they attempt to
discover and explain laws describing the forces of nature, such as gravity, electromagnetism, and nuclear interactions. Physicists also find ways to apply physical laws and
theories to problems in electronics, optics, communications, aerospace technology, and medical instrumentation.
