Heat Transfer

This week in Science class we'll be learning about how heat is transfered.

Heat transfers in 3 ways: conduction, convection, and radiation.

Conduction is when heat transfers by direct touch of an already hot surface.

Convecton is when heat transfers through means of vapor.

Radiation is when the heat from the sun warms up the Earth.
STUDENTS, WHAT OTHER ITEMS AROUND YOUR HOUSE ARE EXAMPLES OF CONVECTION AND CONDUCTION?
