Physics Roller Coaster Lesson 2 of 4
by Jenifer Henson
This is the second lesson in a four part roller coaster project for 6th grade. In this lesson, students will learn about friction and gravity. Students will test different materials to determine which material will best slow down a marble in a roller coaster track. Students will record their data and observations in the provided roller coaster journal.

Coding and flying drones what a match! Students will have the chance to experiment with flying a drone in a simulator. The lesson includes 4 missions incorporating forces of flight acting on a drone.

Grades:
5th Grade
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

Grades:
6th Grade
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
