Motion

This is a project to be used possibly at the end of a unit on Newton's Laws with discussions of how his laws apply to the painting and the motion of the pendulum. It can also lead to discussions of

This lesson focuses on teaching 4th-grade students the fundamental concepts of force and motion through the hands-on activity of designing, constructing, and launching paper rockets. The lesson

In this lesson, your students will be engaged in learning about forces and motion while using fractions in line plots. Students will record the spin time of different objects, they will display data

The students in this lab activity will play a competitive game with a small bouncy ball. The students will analyze the motion of the ball and apply projectile motion concepts. This activity requires

My lesson plan is entitled: Popsicle Stick Catapult. This lesson focuses on making a catapult out from popsicle sticks. This can be done inside the classroom where the students will be having fun

In this lesson students will research different roller coasters then work in groups design and build a roller coaster using pipe insulation and tape. Students will then analyze their roller coaster

In this lesson students will be exploring the ball drop phenomenon in order to gain an understanding of Newton's second law of motion. Students will observe the phenomenon demonstration and then

Part 3 of the Unit. Students launch their rockets and record observations along with altitude data!

In this lesson, students will carry out an investigation to discover how increasing the mass of an object will affect its motion. Then, they will design their own investigation to discover how
