Energy Types
Energy is everywhere in the world around us. We need energy to run our factories, heat our homes, and fuel our bodies. For example, just think about the many ways that we use energy to cook our food, from the oven in our kitchens to the many types of barbecue grills in our backyards.

Read the lists below. Add any additional words that are different from your list from assignment 1. Use this document to group any types, sources, or associated words that seem to refer to the same type of energy. You can do this using colored pencils, or by making lists of each set of words that seem to be a given type of energy. Try to get all of the words into 10 categories, one for each basic type of energy.
For example, gasoline and charcoal are both examples of substances that burn.
