Instructions
Play through this interactive game to learn about Energy in Chemical Processes. Suitable for Grade 3, Grade 4, Grade 5.
Main Concepts
Energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be transported and transferred between objects.
During photosynthesis, light energy from the sun is changed into stored chemical energy that a plant can use to grow.
Energy radiated from the sun is transferred to Earth by light.
Photosynthesis occurs when plants absorb energy from sunlight.
Stored chemical energy is released when food is digested.
When machines or animals use energy, the energy is typically transferred to heat the surrounding environment.
Photosynthesis is a chemical process that forms plant matter from the energy in sunlight as well as air and water.
The energy released by digesting food was once energy from the Sun that was captured by plants.
When animals eat plants, they obtain the chemical energy stored in the plants.
Discussion Questions
Before the Game
What do plants need to grow? Why do plants need sunlight? Why do we eat plants?
After the Game
