Investigating the Effects of Balanced and Unbalanced Forces: Lesson 2
Students gain a deeper understanding of the concepts of balanced and unbalanced forces in this lesson. They will be able to identify the effects that balanced and unbalanced forces have on the motion of objects and be able to analyze and communicate evidence of the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the motion of objects. They will begin the development of a model in this 2nd lesson in a series of 3.

Students will build the strongest boat they can using only aluminum foil. They will learn about engineering design, water displacement, the effects of gravity, decimal multiplication, and geometry.
This lesson is designed to have students investigate how objects, of different masses, will be affected when dropped to Earth. The lesson begins with a phenomena video - this video connects the idea
Students design and build air powered gliders in this engaging lesson. This is a fun way to teach and apply principles of force as they apply to flight including lift, gravity, thrust, and drag
