What is energy, and how is it measured? Is a significant amount of effort required to generate the energy needed for daily activities? This activity offers a hands-on approach to understanding how energy is produced and measured. Generating energy can be an abstract concept. This kinesthetic activity helps students grasp what it takes to meet their daily energy demands and become familiar with the units used to measure energy, work, and power.
This lesson introduces students to the concept of energy, helping them recognize its presence in every aspect of their daily lives. By the end of the lesson, students will gain a deeper understanding of the processes and resources required to generate the energy they rely on each day.
