Newton's Laws

This is Task 1 (Lesson 1) of four tasks (lessons) of an overall project of “Escaping 7th Grade Science Room.” Students will be constructing a mini zip-line after reviewing concepts. Students will

Connect real world situations to the graphs of parabolas through flight. Groups will create PVC stomp rockets, collect data of their rocket's flight path and graph this path on paper to compare to

In this hands-on lesson, students learn how to get their drone into the air. It covers hovering, yaw, roll, and pitch. Before the students launch their drones, there is a discussion about preparing

This is the first lesson in a series of 4. Students gain an understanding of the forces that are acting upon a drone when it is flying. They will learn about how thrust, weight, lift and drag work

This hands-on lesson covers balanced and unbalanced forces. Students use the skills they have already been taught to apply them to a real-world situation involving rockets. You will need 500mL bottles

Students experience the process of creating a whole elevator-shaft design complete with a car and a pulley system. They will experience an integrated STEAM lesson with combined content from Science

In this interactive lesson, students will create a Duplo Lego Vehicle and test how forces affect motion. Students will be placed in groups of 3-4 and be given a force to test. They will decide which

In this lesson, students will be able to analyze and communicate evidence of the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the motion of objects. They conduct research to provide evidence of the

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
