Activity 1: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 6 min

Eureka - High Temperature

You get to play hide and seek! In this set of activities, you will learn about heat transfer by looking for hidden items, completing mini-games, and answering questions focused on how atoms are affected by heat. The mini-games include activities like memory games, jig saw puzzles, and scenes where you need to highlight the differences. Pay attention so you can ace the quiz at the end. Good luck!

Thermal Flow (Mid)

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.

The Candy Store- heat as energy transfer

All the candy in the world is at your fingertips in this game! You will operate a candy factory, and you need to make as many sweets as possible. You will produce as many candies as you can by spinning a circular candy cane. The more times you click, the more sweets you earn, as you answer questions about heat and thermal energy correctly.

Torch 'Em!

This game will let you safely play with fire. You are a lab technician who has to fulfill orders given by your supervisor. You will use your torch to reach the desired thermal energy level or physical state for the objects that are brought in front of you. You'll need to know what happens when substances are heated or cooled and understand what impacts a substance's state of matter.

HeatLab3 (Mid)

Help your scientist find his equipment. When you've done so, watch as he performs experiments about heat conduction, heat radiation and heat convection. Once you answer all the questions in the section, you and the scientist will conduct the experiments together - answer the questions as quickly as you can to maximize your points!

Activity 6: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 16 min

Study Escape Room: Changing Temperature

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.

Activity 7: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 21 min

Temperature and Total Energy

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 8: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 13 min

Flow of thermal energy (Mid)

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.
