99 minActivity 1: Question Game. Estimated duration: 14 min
At the start of this game, you will learn about particle motion. After a series of facts, you will race through a tunnel in a spacecraft. You must soar through barriers and collect coins. If you do not navigate around the barriers, you must answer a question correctly to continue. The start of each level gives you a new piece of information.

Activity 2: Question Game. Estimated duration: 11 min
It's time to take a shot at learning about thermal energy! Use your slingshot to hit the flying objects that will cross your screen. Some of the objects that you hit will provide you with facts. You will see other objects that will give you questions to answer that will boost your score. As the levels advance, the objects will move more quickly! Good luck!

Activity 3: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 12 min
This game is a simulation of how temperature is related to particle motion and thermal energy. It is a step by step explanation of the role of heating sources, thermometers, and kinetic energy involved in particle motion. You will have to complete basic tasks such as adding heat, reading a thermometer, and sorting cups based on temperature. Complete all stages of the game to win!

Activity 4: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 12 min
The goal of this game is to help you learn about thermal energy through experimentation. You will be given different foods, like steak and ice cream, to place near hot and cold sources. Your goal is to maintain a safe temperature for that food. As you play, the game will teach you about thermal energy and how heat is transferred between objects.

Activity 5: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 13 min
You are a young engineer in a lab, and it is your day to learn about thermal energy. Each level imparts a new task related to heat transfer. Most of the tasks require you to heat up different materials like bricks, aluminum or plastics and measure or watch the change in temperature of each. You will try out fifteen different experiments to understand thermal energy.

Activity 6: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 21 min
Do you have energy? Of course you do! Everything has energy. This game will teach you about a very specific type of energy called thermal energy. You will learn to use the Bunsen burner to increase temperature, the balance scale to measure mass, and the thermometer to measure temperature. You will then apply all of these skills to answer questions about thermal energy.

Activity 7: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 16 min
In this game, you will try to escape from a room that is almost entirely dark. As you wander around the halls you will encounter information blocks and question gates. Pick up clues from the blocks along the way and answer questions about temperature, thermal energy, and energy exchange. Be patient as you play and try to find your way out of the study room.
