LEGO Land Sailing Car
In this lesson, students will experiment with unseen forces and their effect on motion. Students will build a LEGO land sailing car that will be powered by wind produced from a fan. Students will engage is a land sailing video and discuss what they know about what is causing the car to move. Students will experiment with their car to find the best sail angle and shape for making the land yacht travel the farthest distance. Students will collect data and explain their observations about the forces they noticed. Students will have the opportunity to design a new land sailing car.

In this hands-on lesson, students build small-scale wind-powered cars. They construct an understanding that energy is transferred from the wind to the sail car. Students explain how they used
In this engaging lesson, students will research and design rhythm sticks. They will use them in music and PE class to exercise and create music with. This hands-on lesson incorporates multiple areas
