Curated OER
Up and Down We Go
Students explore physics concepts such as velocity, acceleration and speed to create a model of a safe roller coaster. They design and conduct a lab to demonstrate the properties of an object fired horizontally and at an angle.
Curated OER
How Do You Move Along the Earth?
Students determine their own walking and running velocity. For this physics lesson, students calculate velocity using distance and time information. They compare human and animal speeds.
Curated OER
Marble Madness
Students determine the velocity of a marble rolling down the incline. In this physics lesson, students identify the independent and dependent variables in the experiment. They construct and analyze a graph.
Curated OER
Dude, Who Hit My Car?
Students discuss how investigators solve a hit and run accident. In this physical science lesson, students recreate an accident scene using CEENBot. They collect data from the experiment and formulate conclusion.
Curated OER
Newton's Three Laws of Motion Lesson Plan
Students explore Newton's three laws of motion using a variety of activities. In this physics lesson plan, students calculate the average speed of a vehicle they constructed using distance and time information. They identify and draw the...
Curated OER
Go Car, Go!
Middle schoolers design and build their own car. In this physics lesson, students collect data to determine the speed of the car. They plot the data on the graph analyze the relationship between variables.
Curated OER
Build Your Own Car
Students determine the factors that affect car speed. In this physics lesson, students design a car that can travel fast and far. They record test run data and use them to construct graphs.
Curated OER
Acceleration
Young scholars develop an understanding of velocity and to distinguish it from speed. To determine the difference between a scalar and a vector quantity. To explore how acceleration is derived from velocity and time.
Curated OER
Earthquake on the Playground
Young scholars investigate earthquakes by examining chart data. In this disasters activity, students identify the waves that are recorded when an earthquake arises by reading sample graphs in class. Young scholars...
