The top of a roller coaster, without motion, will have this amount of kinetic energy.

What is zero?

100

Before dropping a quarter from a high table, gravitational energy will be this

What is at its max?

100

Dropping cans from different heights showed us these two types of energy.

What are potential (gravitational) & kinetic?

100

Temperature is the measurement of this.

What is the speed of molecules?

100

The procedures Halls is to be followed in these locations.

What are the hallways and stairwells?

200

A skier and a snowboarder are going down a hill at a rate of 40 km/h. The skier is 10 kg more massive than the snowboarder. Therefore we can say this about the kinetic energy of the snowboarder.

What is the snowboarder has less kinetic energy?

200

As a roller coaster is pulled to a higher point on its track, and then stop, this will increase 

What is gravitational energy?

200

when dropping cans during the first investigation (measuring mass v kinetic energy) we controlled this variable.

What is height of dropping?

200

Fat dissolves in oil and soap does not. This investigation told us about this property.

What is solubility?

200

In order to create a safe environment in learning these need to be in place.

What are routines and procedures?

300

While increasing the height of an object, there is more kinetic energy as it falls because of this factor. 

What is time for the object to fall and speed of falling?

300

The thing, according to the reading 3.1, that makes roller coasters fun is this. It is also what makes a pendulum swing back and forth.

What is conversions from gravitational energy to kinetic energy?

300
The amount of smoosh showed us this type of energy.

What is kinetic energy?

300

Electrolysis of water forms new molecules by this procedure.

What is the breaking apart bonds of molecules and rearranging them?

300

Show both the hand signal for borrowing a pencil and computer cart. 

What are ___________?

400

School bus drivers are extra careful before crossing a railroad because trains have greater kinetic energy because of this component (not speed).

What is large mass?

400

The reason that the skater in the skate park did not stop when it was on the "U" shaped ramp was due to the fact that we removed this type of force. 

What is friction? (or air resistance)

400

We dropped cans of the same mass at different heights to determine the effects of this type of energy. 

What is gravitational and/or kinetic?

400

This is the process of a new substance forming as a result of the breaking apart of molecules or rearranging of atoms. 

What is a chemical reaction?

400

Expectations for treating one another in our classroom are these following options.

What are with respect, kindness, trust? Any are applicable.

500

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to these three things

What are mass, height, and speed?

500

Losing and gaining height changes the gravitational energy back and forth between it and kinetic energy. Yet some of the energy is transferred into this type of energy (not yet investigated).

What is thermal energy?

500

The point at which a pendulum has the greatest amount of kinetic energy. 

What is the center of the swing?

500

In a closed system these two things are conserved. 

What are energy and number of atoms(mass/matter)? 

500

Behavior that is appropriate earn these and behaviors that interrupt learning or interfere with a safe environment earn these. 

What are tickets (rewards/dojo points) and consequences?
