Heat energy plays a critical role in natural processes and in human life. Global warming has also
focused considerable attention on the processes that control temperatures at the earth’s surface.
By acquiring a working understanding of the nature of heat, students in Grade 7 will gain new
insights into the ways that heat affects our world. Students will learn about the causes and effects
of heat, investigate its properties, relate it to geological and meteorological processes, and use
their new-found knowledge to design a device to minimize heat transfer. They will also use the
particle theory to help them explain their observations.
Here is a website that you and your family can partake in to see what kind of footprint you are leaving on our earth.
