P3: Net Force

Dive into the physics and engineering and programming of holonomic drives! Learn to code and control movement for your FTC robot with hands-on activities and real-world applications.

Students will understand the physics of forces: friction, pulls and pushes by using STEM concepts. This could be an end unit for students to develop and create a culminating STEM project. There are 3

Students observe the phenomena of a raisin (a.k.a. sewer slug) moving up and down in a carbonated beverage. By having students collect data and calculate averages, math is brought into this long-time

Students will use the principles invented by Bernoulli and Archimedes to learn about hot air balloons. Then students will create one out of tissue paper and test it!

Students will read and study types of movements and forces. They will draw examples of things that move in different ways. Then they will create a marble painting using the different movements and

Students learn about leg prosthetics, design a blueprint and engineer a working prosthetic leg.

Students will learn about the history of rocketry and the science behind it. They will launch rockets using pressure for propulsion, as well as model rockets with engines.

In this lesson plan, students explore the ideas of energy transfer between two objects. Students are tasked with making a maze for a marble to run through, using a 3d pen and other materials. Students

Students will build and use pom pom shooters to conduct an investigation into kinetic vs potential energy. Students will measure the distance their pom pom travels and make conclusions about the
