Curated OER
Super-Ball Physics
Students experiment with varied balls to determine the bounce factor in centimeters. In this physics lesson, students experiment to find the height a ball must be dropped from the have the highest bounce rate. Students graph the results...
Curated OER
Bouncing Balls
Students explore the concept of gravity. In this gravity instructional activity, students drop super balls from varying heights. Students record the height of the super ball on bounce zero and bounce one.
Curated OER
Super Sonar
In this echo lesson plan, students create echos using rubbers balls and a chair to simulate animals finding out where they are. Students follow 3 sets of directions and answer 2 questions.
Curated OER
Bouncing Balls
Students make observations of a bouncing ball and study how it travels. For this height lesson students complete a lab activity and describe and explain the motion of the ball.
Curated OER
Nature of Game Balls
Fourth graders see how, when balls are dropped from the same height, mass and size affects the motion of the balls.
Curated OER
Invent on the Spot
The best inventions come from a problem that needs to be solved! Given a container with holes in it, learners must solve how to stop liquid from pouring out. They work together to develop an invention to accomplish this task.
Curated OER
Build a Better Bouncer
Students experiment with silly putty. In this chemical changes lesson students work in groups, perform tests and collect data.
