B. Establishing 1. Lesson Purpose
Lesson Purpose
You may say this to the class:
In today's lesson, we will explore the major sources of heat energy as well as
the three fundamental methods of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and
radiation. Our goal is to understand how heat energy moves through
different materials and environments, and to recognize real-world examples
of each method.
Through various activities, you will be able to define and differentiate between
these three types of heat transfer, explain the principles behind them, and
apply this knowledge to analyze everyday situations, such as how a pot heats
up on a stove or how the sun warms the earth. This understanding will not
only enhance your comprehension of physical science concepts but also
provide practical insights into energy efficiency and thermal management in
various contexts.

spoon was heated.
2. No.
3. The first paper clip to fall is
the one nearest to the flame.
The last paper clip to fall is
the one farthest from the
flame. As the free end of the
spoon was heated by the
candle, heat began to travel
from the free end of the
spoon to the other side spoon
as evidenced by the melting
of the wax that led to the fall
of the paper clips.
4. The flame heats up the
atoms of the spoon causing
them to vibrate faster and a
stronger collision to each
other thus raising the
thermal energy of the spoon.
The increase in kinetic
energy of the atoms raised
the temperature of the
spoon, thus melting the wax
and the paper clips fall.
