Heat

In science we are starting a new unit about how heat travels. Heat travels in waves that are invisible to the human eye. Heat can travel three ways: in radiation, convection, and conduction.
Radiation-Radiation is when heat travels through the air.
Convection-Convection is when heat is put directly onto an object.
Conduction-Conduction is when heat travels through an object to heat up another object.
