This unit on thermal energy has been very interesting and informative. I enjoyed conducting investigations to see how thermal energy affects matter and designing and testing a device that transfers thermal energy. I also learned about the relationship between potential and kinetic energy, and how they are related to thermal energy and temperature. Overall, I feel like I have a better understanding of how thermal energy works and its impact on different states of matter.
