Design a Coin Operated Game Challenge using Newton’s Laws of Motion
by Carol Nowakowski
This is a multiple-day lesson plan based on Newton's 3 Laws of Motion. Students begin the lesson by collecting data observing coins moving across a table. After making the observations, students will design and create a workable game utilizing the knowledge gained through the observations from the coin lab.
