P3: Net Force

This lesson uses a Modeling Instruction approach to developing the graphical and mathematical relationships for Circular Motion for students in Grades 9-12. Students design an experiment, collect data

In this lesson students will discuss how contact forces cause energy to be transferred and objects to move. They will learn that sound waves involve contact forces. Students will consider how contact

Students will learn basic concepts of physics, including velocity, motion, and vector. S tudents will develop and use a model to predict how forces act on objects at a distance. Finally students will

Students will begin to construct their containers for their eggs. Students will work together to build their egg protector container using the materials they brought in and that were provided for them

Students will begin designing a container to keep and egg safe when dropped from various heights. As they begin the lesson, students will watch a video and discuss science and engineering practices

This lesson is about building and testing a Ferris Wheel and the history behind it. Students should be familiar with the concepts of forces, motion, and gravity before starting this project. They

This lesson focuses on kinetic and potential energy and features a rollback can. The can when complete can be rolled away from the student and then returns back to where it started. The purpose is to

In this lesson, students comprehend basic physics concepts that are applicable to constructing a device that protects an egg from breaking when dropped. Team building and self-reflection are key

Make quadratics come alive with stomp rockets! This is a 3-4 hour learning experience where students will build and launch paper rockets, then use the data to create quadratic equations.
