True! Temperature is the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance.Heat is the total kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance. See the difference?For example, if you double the amount of a substance, then you have double the heat energy, but the temperature stays the same.
It would not be the potential energy because potential is the measure of energy that is not in motion yet. When you measure the temperature and it reads 200 degrees YOU WILL FEEL IT because the objects molecules are in motion. If you measured its potential energy at this point of 200 degrees it would probably be close to zero if not zero. When you measure the temperature you are measuring the kinetic energy. The kinetic energy is the measure of how much energy the molecules have that are in motion.
The measurement of the energy or heat in matter involves measurement of average speed of atoms and molecules.
Temperature depends on the average kinetic energy of atoms and molecules.
A measure of the average thermal energy of the molecules in it.

temperature is the average kinetic energy of a particle
Temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.
Temperature is an indirect measurement of a system's molecule's average kinetic energy (KE). As the temperature of a system increases, so does the KE of the molecules. This causes the molecules to move farther apart. You can see this most easily in an old (not digital) thermometer.

You decrease the temperature. Temperature is the measurement of the average speed of the molecules in a substance. The faster the molecules are moving, the higher the temperature. The slower, the lower the temperature.
Temperature measures the average kinetic energy of molecules. The molecules of a substance move or vibrate at different speeds, causing something to be warmer/hotter or cooler/colder. The faster they move, the warmer it feels, and the higher the temperature. It can be measured in Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvins.

Temperature is a number that is related to the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance. If temperature is measured in Kelvin degrees, then this number is directly proportional to the average kinetic energy of the molecules. This differentiates it from *heat,* a different term, which is a measurement of the total energy in a substance. That total energy is made up of not only of the kinetic energies of the molecules of the substance, but total energy is also made up of the potential energies of the molecules. As temperature increases, kinetic energy increases (which makes sense, if you're putting more energy into a system, you're probably going to have more total energy).
