Investigating the Effects of Balanced and Unbalanced Forces: Lesson 2
Students gain a deeper understanding of the concepts of balanced and unbalanced forces in this lesson. They will be able to identify the effects that balanced and unbalanced forces have on the motion of objects and be able to analyze and communicate evidence of the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the motion of objects. They will begin the development of a model in this 2nd lesson in a series of 3.

Radioactive Orbs
This lesson focuses on using the engineering design process and simple machines to design a device that the students can use to safely transport radioactive orbs across the span of 8 feet. Students
Students create a reindeer to learn about force and see how far their reindeer can fly. They can track their distance and make improvements on their reindeer. Enrichments students can see how weight
Investigative Phenomenon: When subjected to identical forces, a golf ball and a table tennis ball exhibit distinct movement. In this lesson, students discover: 1. Equivalent force may result in varied
