Force, Motion, and Energy
Students investigate forces, including friction, gravity, and magnetism, to observe their effects on objects. They differentiate between mechanical, sound, light, thermal, and electrical energy. Students observe the cycle of energy and the parts of a system while exploring circuits that produce light and thermal energy. They will build on their understanding of circuits in Grade 5. As students explore thermal and electrical energy, they observe the behavior of different materials to identify patterns and label the materials as conductors or insulators.
