Hello! Today we're going to learn about energy. Energy is like the 'oomph' or power that makes things happen and move! It's what helps you run, jump, and think. It's also what helps you grow taller. Energy is all around us - it comes from the sun, from the food we eat, and it's even in the batteries that power your toys! Think of energy as the special power that makes everything work.
Who needs energy? Everyone and everything needs energy! You need energy to play, learn, and even sleep. Your toys need energy too - like batteries for your remote control car. Cars need energy from petrol or electricity to move. Plants need energy from the sun to grow. Energy is essential for everything around us to work properly.
Energy comes in different forms. Movement energy is what makes things move, like when you run or a ball rolls. Stored energy is energy waiting to be used, like in batteries or the food in your tummy. Heat energy makes things warm, like fire or the sun. Light energy helps us see, like from a lamp or the sun. All these different types of energy help make our world work!
Energy doesn't disappear - it just changes from one form to another! When you eat food, the energy in the food changes into movement energy when you run or play. When sunlight shines on plants, they use that light energy to grow. When you turn on a flashlight, the stored energy in the battery changes into light energy. When a car uses petrol, that energy changes into movement. Energy is always changing forms, but it never disappears completely!
Let's remember what we've learned about energy! Energy is the power that makes things happen and move. Everyone and everything needs energy to work properly. Energy comes in different forms like movement energy, heat energy, light energy, and stored energy. Energy doesn't disappear - it just changes from one form to another. Without energy, nothing would happen! Energy is what makes our world go round!
