About these materials

Use the student tasks with the separate teacher guide. The completed numerical records are constructed teaching data, not measurements from an experiment. Blank practical forms are for classroom measurements.

These resources address selected middle-school thermal energy ideas. Paper tasks do not demonstrate physical construction or testing. Use ordinary school procedures and the practical teacher guide for equipment work.

The text, tasks, tables and graphics are original project materials. Source links explain the ideas used and do not imply endorsement. Classroom copying and adaptation follow theMentor Teaching Terms of Use.
