Reading. Read a novel for 30 minutes. Science and technology Essential Energy: Electricity Electricity is one of our most useful forms of energy. * Create a list of objects that require electricity to run, including objects that use batteries which have been charged by electricity e.g., our phones, electric cars etc. Think about the following questions:
What is electricity formed of?
How is electricity transferred to our
homes?
* Read about how electricity is
formed on the attachment.
* Blow up a balloon and rub it on your
hair, then hold the balloon near your
hair. What happens?
Static electricity makes your hair
stand up. It carries very little charge.
To power our homes and cities, large
amounts of power are required.
First, humans have to collect sources
of potential or kinetic energy, then
transform that energy into a kind of
energy that is useful in the home and
school = electrical energy.
* Brainstorm sources of energy. Think
about sources of energy that you’ve
heard about e.g. renewable energy.
* Read about energy sources in the
attachment.
* Create a table of renewable and
non-renewable energy sources.

Week 3 Physical Science: It’s Electric
How is electricity created? All matter is made up of atoms, and an atom has a center, called a nucleus. The nucleus contains positively charged particles called protons and uncharged particles called neutrons. The nucleus of an atom is surrounded by negatively charged particles called electrons. It is these electrons that form electricity. When electrons are "lost" or come free from an atom and are pulled in one direction, the movement of these electrons makes up an electric current. As such, electricity in our homes is made up of moving electrons that are conducted through copper wires.
What is static electricity? Static electricity is created when positive and negative charges aren't balanced. Protons and neutrons don't move around much, but electrons love to jump all over the place! When an object (or person) has extra electrons, it has a negative charge. Static electricity means the increase of electric charge on the surface of objects. This electric charge remains on an object until it either flows into the ground or loses its charge quickly by a discharge (electric shock). Charge exchange can happen in conditions like when different objects are rubbed and separated.
Sources of energy to transform into electricity Renewable energy: sources of energy that do not get used up, or can be regrown, replaced or renewed. Non-renewable energy: sources of energy that can only be used once. These energy sources are often called ‘fossil fuels’.
Solar energy • Light energy from the Sun is converted directly into
electricity using a solar panel.
• Solar panels can be placed on the roofs of houses, schools and other buildings to generate electricity for direct use in that location.
Wind energy • Electricity is generated using a structure called a wind
turbine. Turbines look like giant ceiling fans.
• The energy of the wind spins the blades of the turbine. This causes a generator inside the turbine to spin and produce electrical energy.
Hydro electricity • This method of producing electricity uses the energy
uses the energy from water flowing downhill to spin turbines and generators.
• To do this, water flows from a higher dam to a lower dam.
Ocean energy • Ocean energy uses the kinetic energy of moving ocean
water to generate electricity.
• Australia does not yet generate any of its electricity this way yet, but a lot of research is being done in this area.
Geothermal energy • Geothermal energy is the heat energy found deep
under the Earth’s crust. It is found in hot water or steam, which is used to turn turbines.
• 17% of New Zealand’s energy is generated this way.
Coal is a fossil fuel The non-renewable energy sources that are used to generate electricity in Australia are coal and natural gas. They are known as ‘fossil fuels’ because they were formed from the decaying remains of animals and plants that lived millions of years ago. They are buried deep underground and need to be dug up and sent to a power station. In Australia, coal and gas generates about 80% of our electricity. We also export it to other countries for them to use.
The effect of fossil fuels on the environment When coal, oil or natural gas is burnt, a gas called carbon dioxide (CO2) is released into the Earth’s atmosphere. This carbon dioxide acts like a blanket and keeps in extra heat around the Earth. The effects of this warming include rising sea levels, melting of polar ice and changing weather patterns. This is known as climate change. Renewable energy sources do release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
Week 3 Physical Science: It’s Electric
Power Generation Scramble – Cut out the sentences then put them the order that describes how energy is
generated.
Hint: if you are stuck, watch the video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20Vb6hlLQSg&ab_channel=energynownews
Inside the power plant, coal, oil or gas is burned in a furnace which heats water in a big
boiler to create steam.
You can use the electricity to switch on lights, watch TV, listen to music and cook dinner!
The steam goes through the turbine blades making them spin 3,000 times in one minute.
The electrical energy then travels along the distribution power lines to our homes, schools,
hospitals, offices, factories, street lamps, traffic lights, cinemas, restaurants, fire stations and
everything else that needs electrical energy to work.
The steam is sent through pipes to the turbine, which is a big fan. (Mechanical energy)
The turbine is connected to the generator; this is a large magnet and lots of wire.
Big high-voltage transmission lines carry electricity to your city or suburb. It passes through
zone sub-stations, where the voltage is lowered, then to transformers which lower it again
to make it safe to use in our homes.
The electricity travels through wires inside the walls to outlets and switches all over your
house.
Power stations put the fuel into a boiler and set fire to it. (Heat energy)
It travels through smaller power lines to your house.
It passes through an electricity meter that measures how much energy your family uses.
The electricity generated at the power station is fed through transmission lines to zone
substation transformers.
When the magnet spins 3,000 times a minute the generator makes electrical energy.
The chemical energy in the fuel is changed into heat energy in the form of steam.
If the plant is hydro-electric, the potential energy stored in the water is used to drive the
turbine.

Indigenous Astronomy In Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, everything on the land is reflected in the sky. The sky is like a scientific textbook — a map — that holds knowledge for those who can interpret and read the information it holds. The positions of the sun, moon, and stars in relation to the land tells Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples what changes will occur in the environment, such as the seasons, weather patterns and the behaviour of plants and animals. The relationships between the sky, people, and Country, is what allows Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to thrive, harvesting only what they need and ensuring sustainability for future generations. Stars and events in the sky guide Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to safely navigate long journeys across the lands, seas and waterways. The sky holds valuable information about food sources, travel paths and optimum times to travel during the year. Knowledge to read the map of the sky and landscape is shared through story, song and dance and passed on from generation to generation. Constellations:
- Constellations are groups of stars that form a recognisable pattern. Different cultures often have different names, stories and patterns for the same group of stars, which have been passed on in their culture.
- You might have heard of Zodiac Star Signs before (Capricorn, Sagittarius, Virgo, and so on). Zodiacs are based off Greek mythology. But Zodiac signs have lots in common with some of the oldest living cultures in the world, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures!
- Orion is a boastful hunter in Greek mythology, who was killed by a scorpion. He is defending himself from the charging bull Taurus. Taurus is also a Zodiac sign. Orion appears upside down to us, being in the Southern Hemisphere.
- In Greek mythology, the scorpion that killed Orion sits opposite him in the night sky - this is the constellation and Zodiac ‘Scorpius’. They were placed on opposite sides of the sky to keep them away from each other.
- Torres Strait Islanders of Australia have a similar story. The culture hero, Tagai, killed his 12-man fishing crew (Zugubals) in a rage because they broke traditional law, and they all ascended to the sky. Tagai is standing on his canoe, formed by the same stars as Scorpius. The Zugubals are represented by two groups of 6 stars. Tagai placed the Zugubals on the opposite side of the sky to keep them far away from him.
