- Bring together pupils' ideas developed in this unit by:
- asking them to produce a leaflet which gives an example and an explanation of heat transfer in a situation of interest to them,
eg on a mountaineering expedition above the snowline; on a beach holiday; cooking on a barbecue. Encourage imagination and ask for explanation. The audience for their leaflet may be parents, younger pupils, the general public
- providing a large picture of a seaside scene including sea, sand, Sun, sunbather, beach barbecue, parasol, swimmer, balloonist and onshore wind. Ask pupils to identify all the situations of energy transfer and which mechanism is responsible, and to label and explain each item briefly
