Peacocks science

Learning about energy 

The children are beginning to learn about energy and it's different types.  So far, we have covered kinetic energy, potential energy, centripetal force, and the sun being the worlds main source of energy.  We are using everyday situations and objects do demonstrate and discuss the energy involved and how it might have been produced.  This ties loosely into our last theme of changes and we hope this will eventually prepare the children to build a turning wheel owe red by running water that will power a small light.
