Use this resource to gain an understanding of students' prior or post-knowledge on the transfer of heat from one object to another. The questions ask students to share their ideas on:

• Friction, electricity and burning
• Describing changes to objects when heated or cooled
• Conduction and convection
• Using thermometers to measure heat
• Indigenous perspective

This assessment is best used in unison with the Grade 3 Physical Sciences Unit:

• My Heat and Motion Booklet
• Everyday Changes (Heating and cooling)
• Heat (Indigenous perspective)
