Racing Cars: How Mass Affects Speed and Distance
This is a two- part lesson using pull back cars. Students will change the mass of their pull back cars to determine if the mass affects the distance they travel or their speed. This engaging lesson incorporates a variety of standards and gives students an opportunity to explore energy concepts and motion!

Rad Roller Coasters Part 2 comes at the end of our paper roller coaster project. Students will collect data on their coaster and use that to calculate velocity, potential energy and kinetic energy
Understanding and studying energy transfer produced by molecules collisions can be difficult and abstract for them. To make it easier for them to visualize, creating a Newton's Cradle will help them
In this lesson, students will conduct an investigation to see how temperature can affect the state of matter.
