Describing Motion
Reinforce the concepts of motion and force in this graphic organizer, which prompts students to provide the effect of pushing and pulling an object, as well as an object in motion. Ample space in the answer section allows students to...
Curated OER
Newton's Third Law of Motion
Seventh graders are introduced to Newton's Third Law of Motion. In this physics instructional activity students examine the concept of thrust as one of the forces acting on aircraft.
Curated OER
Classify Forces
Third graders compare and contrast the forces of pushing and pulling. As a class, they take a field trip around the school and write down any action they see and any object that is motionless. In groups, they use magazines to cut out...
Curated OER
How Can Motion Be Described?
In this motion worksheet, students review how to measure motion and describe the direction and position of motion. This worksheet is a graphic organizer.
Curated OER
Animating Motion
Learners apply what they recall about objects in motion by animati ng sequences of pictures that model a set of physical conditions. They animate the orbital motions of the Earth, the space shuttle, and the Moon based on calculations of...
Curated OER
What Can Change an Object's Motion?
In this object in motion worksheet, students will brainstorm ideas of what can change an object's motion. Then the student will write in supporting details for each idea in a graphic organizer.
