Before you start creating your plan
Design the evaluation criteria and their evidence from the beginning.
Get closer to the reality of your students.
Encourage your students to solve, investigate, reflect, and create.
Avoid fireworks.
Organize the sequence arounda topic or concept.
Set learning goals.
Select the content.
Divide the sequence into phases: start,development, and closure.
Organize content fromsimple to complex.
Keep in mind from the beginning how you're going to evaluate this unit and what criteria you'll apply. And of course, remember to establish expectations and deliverables; what assignments do you want to set, and in what format do you want them? The activities that make up the unit plan should form a path towards a passing grade, which is why it's important to share from the get-go what you'll be expecting from students.
Contextualize learning materials and use real-world content. The unit plan should be able to answer the question "How will I use this knowledge in real life?".
Encourage your students to resolve, investigate, reflect, and create. Allow them to improvise. Open the floor up to debate and let them express their opinions freely.
Avoid fireworks in class. Be practical. Everything you do should aim to facilitate learning. Make it motivating and awesome but always meaningful.
Organize the plan around a topic or concept that you want to teach in a specific timeframe (usually short). It needs to make sense on its own and have the aim of helping students acquire the knowledge.
Set learning objectives or outcomes. What new skills or abilities will students have when they finish this unit?
Plan and select the content and think about the strategies, processes, and skills you want to put into practice with your students to achieve the objectives you've set.
Divide your plan into stages or steps. We're suggesting the most common ones but you can expand on them and/or change their names.
Move from the simple to the more complicated. Learning should be gradual and progressive. Start from where students are and what they already know. Link the activities with a meaningful common thread. Each activity should be a rung on the ladder, allowing them to progress in their learning.

That's right! Energy is the ability of matter to produce changes.
The sun is a huge source of energy. The energy that the sun provides to the Earth is much greater than that consumed by humankind. In addition, the sun is the engine of other renewable energies, wind, waves, biomass... all originate from the continuous action of the sun's rays.
Water is fundamental for life on Earth and also for many human activities. Since ancient times, the force of water in motion has been harnessed for its ability to generate, change, and work, that is, for the energy it produces. Mills that harness the power of water are a good example of machines that have been used by humans since ancient times. In flour mills, running water turns a wheel with a grinding wheel or circular stone that, when rotating on another fixed grinding wheel, grinds the grain that is transformed into flour. This type of mill was also used to obtain paper pulp and in the textile industry. With the appearance of the electric generator and the development of the turbine, waterfalls began to have another function: the production of electricity.
The energy produced by the use of the force of the wind is called wind energy and was one of the first sources of energy used by humankind. For example, sailing ships and windmills are the first manifestations of the energetic use of wind energy. Nowadays, windmills transform the mechanical energy of rotation into electrical energy through wind turbines.
From crude oil, From crude oil, we obtain gasoline, diesel, and heating fuels, as well as waxes, plastics, and fertilizers. These fuels are a great source of energy. Because they are mostly liquid, they can be easily transported. It is currently the most widely used form of energy, as cars, ships, airplanes, and many machines use it. Unfortunately, it is the most contaminating form of energy production.

Different types of energy
Intergalactic challenge!!
Work in teams
Sig is an incredible being; he may seem frightening but the truth is that he is a calm, intelligent, sensitive being, and ... like us, he feeds on energy. But energy in its purest state.To learn more about Sig, explore the icons on his picture.Sig has arrived on our planet and doesn't know what kind of energy he can eat, he is really desperate and needs our help.
Sigfrid is hungry!!!
An intergalactic challenge
Types of energy
Explore!
Sig travels in time and space at the speed of light, but certain turbulence caused by the black hole at the center of our galaxy caused him to lose his balance and fall to Earth. It has taken him a long time to have a visible spectrum that allows us to see him, but at last he has achieved it, through light energy.
Now he is very weak, because he has tried to absorb any kind of energy possible and some of it has been harmful to him He is asking for our help to be able to continue his journey. Come on, we can't let him fade away and not reach his destination. I'm sure he'll be eternally grateful and will send us messages from his world.
What questions can we ask Sig to find out what type of energy there is on his planet? Which types of energy does Sig know?
In his world, Sig feeds on different types of energies, but here he's having trouble identifying which ones he can and can't eat.
To find out more about the energies in Sig's world:
- In pairs, prepare a list of questions to interview Sig.
- One of you will be the researcher and the other will be Sig, who will answer the questions and give us clues.
What can we do to save him?

Transfer of energy: Energy is transferred from one body to another by various means. For example, heat energy from the Sun is transferred by radiation to sea water, in the form of heat, increasing its temperature (i.e. warming it up). Another example: when we rub our hands together, part of our energy is transferred in the form of motion to our hands (work), and part is transferred in the form of heat.
Transformation of energy: As we have seen: energy is neither created nor destroyed, but transformed. The ability to transform one energy into another is one of the properties of energy. In our example, we see how thermal or heat energy produces mechanical energy and allows the movement of the locomotive. Or for example the generation of electricity.
Energy can be transported: Perhaps the best example is the one we see in the video, which directly influences our daily lives. Energy is transported by conductive means from the generation centers to our homes by means of a network of grids.
Energy can be stored: That is to say, it is capable of accumulating and transforming itself in a place to be used later. This property is fundamental because it allows us to make better use of energy. Batteries are a good example, but there are many others, some of which are being developed right now so that we can make more efficient use of clean energy.

Non-renewable sources
Humans use a lot of electrical and mechanical energy in our daily lives. Where do we get it from? Depending on their origin, we can classify them as energies from renewable and non-renewable sources.
Renewable sources
Explore
Renewable and non-renewable energies
Renewable energy sources are those that do not run out because they are constantly produced in nature. The sun, wind, water, the Earth's internal heat, and biomass are renewable sources of energy. Renewable sources usually produce clean energy that does not harm the planet.
Non-renewable energy sources are limited natural resources, which can be depleted. They are fossil fuels, such as oil, gas, and coal, as well as minerals such as uranium and plutonium. Non-renewable sources usually produce some kind of polluting waste that damages the planet.
Look at the picture and explore the different energy sources
Explore
Renewable and non-renewable energies
Fossil fuels are natural gas and oil. Natural gas, coal, and petroleum derivatives are used in thermal power plants or in industry to produce electricity or to operate various types of machinery. The gasoline that powers most of the vehicles we use for transportation is extracted from petroleum.
Other non-renewable sources of energy are uranium and plutonium. Uranium and plutonium are ores used to produce nuclear reactions. Nuclear power plants produce electricity from atomic or nuclear energy. Atomic energy is also used in certain engines such as submarines. Although atomic energy does not produce pollutants like fossil fuels, its waste is very dangerous, and accidents in an atomic power plant can cause irreparable damage, as in the case of Chernobyl (Ukraine) or Fukushima (Japan).
Solar energy The sun is a renewable energy source. Electrical energy produced from photovoltaic panels is clean energy. Sunlight is captured by photovoltaic panels and transformed into electrical energy. The sun's heat is also captured by solar collectors. It is used for heating or hot water and can be transformed into electrical energy.
Wind energy Wind is a renewable energy source and the energy it produces is clean. Wind possesses mechanical energy, which is capable of moving objects such as windmill blades or sailboats. Wind turbines are large windmills that produce electrical energy when they are turned by the wind.
Hydraulic energy Water is a renewable energy source and the energy it produces is clean. Water possesses mechanical energy, which is capable of moving objects such as turbines or mills of different types. This energy is called hydraulic energy or hydropower. Hydroelectric power plants are installed along rivers, where the mechanical energy of water is transformed into electrical energy. Electricity can also be produced from the mechanical energy of the waves or tides of the sea, this is called tidal energy. Dam to produce electric powerInstallation for the production of tidal electric energy
Fossil fuels, such as coal, natural gas and oil. Coal and natural gas are used in thermal power plants or in industry to produce electricity or to operate various types of machinery. They are also used for heating homes. Petroleum and its derivatives such as diesel are used as fuels for most means of transportation and also for heating homes.
Biomass They are all the waste products of living beings, such as wood, straw, livestock feces. This biomass possesses chemical energy. From biomass it is possible to obtain electrical energy or thermal energy and can even be transformed into fuel for automobiles.
The Earth's internal heat The Earth has heat energy in its interior, called geothermal energy. This type of energy can be used directly to heat water or to heat homes, or it can be transformed into electrical energy.
