Draw a picture that
relates to this term
Radiation
Write the
definition
The transfer of
heat energy that
does not require
a medium
Write 3
things/examples/synonyms
about the term
Electromagnetic waves, light,
feeling heat from a fire off to
the side.
Identify and record 3
similarities among/between
any terms.
1.) all involve energy.
2.) conduction and
convection both need a
medium
3.) they could all be created
by the same source-a
campfire
Conduction
The transfer of
heat by direct
contact
Touching and feeling a cold
can of soda, hot pavement
burning your feet, cooking a
pancake.
Convection
The transfer of
heat by bulk
motion
(observable
movement) of
fluids.
Rising hot air, rising warm
water, boiling soup rising to
top and falling to bottom
Identify and record 3
differences among/between

1.) only radiation does not
need a medium
2.) radiation is the only one
that travels in waves.
