Slavery not only involved the forced migration of African people from their homes, it also meant the forced removal of people within the United States. Using data and interactive graphics, scholars see how the tragedy of human slavery...

A series of examples and activities about how forces have effects on objects. The data given on each slide includes force magnitudes, particle direction and the questions require the class to calculate the resultant vectors. The...

Ask your class what they know about magnets, then take some time and explain basic magnetic properties. This presentation covers polarity, magnets in compasses, and magnetic force. It provides a quick hands-on exploration where kids...

In this physics worksheet, students complete a series of multiple-choice and short-answer questions on force, magnitude, and energy. They complete calculations to solve word problems.

You could use this worksheet two different ways. As is, or you could have learners actually do the experiment shown. They are to determine which magnet is strongest by counting the number of paper clips hanging from it. Why not get five...

Students test different objects such as dominoes, marshmallows, slides, and more to test their force, motion, gravity, friction, and the concept of matter. In this force and motion lesson plan, students understand that the force an...

Third graders are introduced to the concepts of force and motion. In groups, they travel between stations to analyze the effect of force and motion on various objects. They research how various careers use these concepts as well.

Students explore how varying force and mass effect the motion of an object.  In this motion activity students participate in a class activity and demonstrations.

Fifth graders participate in a series of hands-on, Web-based activities and video-based activities to extend their learning of Forces and Motion.

Fourth graders review the meaning of Newton's 3rd Law and discuss the forces that are acting on a book setting on a table. They draw a diagram of the book on the table and use arrows to illustrate the direction the forces are acting.

Ready to have an a-MAZE-ing time teaching electrostatics? Introduce physical science superstars to an engaging resource that tests their knowledge of attractive and repulsive forces. Pupils change the charge of a ball to guide it through...

In this intermolecular forces worksheet, students answer 4 questions about the forces between atoms within molecules and compounds. Students rank the boiling points of compounds based on their intermolecular forces and they explain...

Students assess the damage natural forces have caused Maryland's geographic features. In this state geography and ecology lesson, students work in a group to research ways in which weathering, erosion, and deposition have affected the...

Students design and build original mobiles and consider how the forces of gravity and convection air currents affect the finished piece. They explore how an understanding of balancing forces is important in both art and engineering design.

In this magnetic forces and particle motion worksheet, students use the equation for the radius of a spiral to answer 3 questions about charged particle motion.

Learners explore the use of computers in the military.  In this lesson, students read an article on plans the Air Force is making to increase their use of computers to fight terrorism, then participate in a discussion on the...

In this recognizing the five forces that move objects learning exercise, students identifying the movements, draw and label objects that use these forces, and draw directions of forces of objects. Students write 20 answers.

Learners discover magnetic forces. For this magnetic experiment lesson, students explore magnetism. Learners conduct experiments and discover magnetic poles and magnetic strength.

In this chemistry worksheet, students identify the types of intermolecular forces for 5 different compounds then rank compounds by increasing melting point for 3 additional questions.

In this force activity, students draw motion maps given diagrams and construct qualitative force diagrams. They calculate such things as acceleration, upward forces and the magnitude and direction of the forces.

In this desegregation worksheet, students read the transcript of "Executive Order 9981," and then respond to 10 short answer questions about the desegregation of the armed forces.

For this physical science worksheet, learners complete 7 questions in the form of puzzles, word problems, and brain teasers about forces in fluids.

In this physics worksheet, students answer 50 multiple choice questions on properties of and behavior of magnetic fields and forces.
