By the end of this lesson...

all must:
Identify useful and waste energy types
Recall the 8 common types of energy

most should :
Apply the conservation of energy to a range of appliances
Calculate the efficiency of a range of devices

Some might:
Compare efficient and inefficient devices

Light energy is given out

Kinetic energy
 Anything that moves has kinetic energy
Gravitational potential
 Anything lifted up above the Earth will have
gravitational potential energy
The conservation of energy
When energy is transferred.
