Crush that Can!
Students will make a connection between force, mass, and acceleration (more so velocity). They will design and conduct an experiment to explain how different sized rocks have different outcomes on aluminum cans, this shows the connection between force and mass. They will follow up with an activity where they drive cars with different masses to see how it affects acceleration.

In this engaging lesson, students engineer spinners to demonstrate force and motion. They are provided with materials and use pennies to help create a better balance. Students compete to see who can
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
An introduction to Kepler's 1st Law and ellipses. The lesson includes some guided notes for students as well as a hands on activity where students will draw, measure, explore, and conduct calculations
