Students develop and refine their ability to strike a shuttlecock with a badminton racquet using an underhand serving motion.

Students practice hand-eye coordination skills by identifying proper throwing technique, and by passing, throwing, and bouncing ball to partner from distance of six feet, both while stationary and in motion.

In this Newton's laws and forces learning exercise, students answer 11 questions about inertia, vectors, force, and acceleration using Newton's laws. They also answer 3 questions about classification of species.

Learners investigate how Newton's Third Law affects vehicle design. In this Newton's Third Law lesson, students use a web site to research Newton, his third law, and how to design a vehicle that uses a balloon for power. They sketch and...

In this science worksheet, students identify the Newton laws that explains what happens in 6 steps. The steps involve a yo-yo that is suspended from a hook on a ceiling.

In this physics review worksheet, students compare inertia and momentum, insulators and conductors, and series and parallel circuits. Students review Newton's laws. This worksheet has 20 fill in the blank, 12 matching, and 20 problems to...

In this physics review worksheet, students compare experimental variable, simple machines, and Newton's Laws. Students calculate kinetic energy, work, power, speed, and velocity. Students review conduction, convection, and radiation....

In this physics 240:10 worksheet, students calculate the speed and distance as presented in the given word problems. Students apply their understanding of Hooke's law to answer the questions provided.

Students determine how a stop animation movie is created. They compare the similarities of a stop animation movie to a flip book and construct a flip book showing fluid motion. They examine the different theories about why when a series...

Students study scientific names and descriptions of forces.  In this motion lesson students organize information into a graphic organizer then teach it to other students. 

In this physics review worksheet, students complete 42 matching, fill in blank, and problem solving questions pertaining to Newton's laws, force formulas, distance formulas, and simple machines.

Young scholars explore how friction change motion and why friction is important. Students set up an incline plane. They slide wooden blocks down the incline plane and measure the distance from the end of the track that the block moved....

High schoolers find a partner, they think about their favorite TV sport that they might like to perform in an unusual dance. They practice their chosen sport and students see if they can make a litter repeating pattern of three or four...

High schoolers are introduced to rotational inertia with some example of objects that rotates: Throw a Frisbee acroos the field and it rotates as it moves. The same is true for a baseball and a football. The two motions, translational...

Students should describe the path that the motion would take as well as what might begin or stop the motion. The common characteristic of all the motions that students have experienced directly is that one or more forces are acting on...

Students use various technology elements to storyboard and create an animal animation story based on a nonfiction story they've read. In this animation story lesson, students work in groups and read nonfiction animal stories. Students...

Learners explore the book, Mrs. Wishy Washy. They listen to the story, participate in a picture walk, identify the patterns of repeated words, role-play the motions, and retell the story using props.

Students create a quilt with a circular motion in the design. After watching a demonstration, they discuss the techniques used. They use different types of fabrics while practicing the proper needle turn. They share their quilts with...

Students make observations of a bouncing ball and study how it travels.  In this height instructional activity students complete a lab activity and describe and explain the motion of the ball. 

Students participate in a science experiment in which they try and move gelatin cubes with and without a lubricant. They examine the concept of friction and resistance to motion.

Pupils discover how molecules are in constant motion. Through a simple experiment of water containing food coloring, they observe the drops of coloring move even though the water is still. Role-playing as molecules, students stand up and...

Students move in a variety of ways such as speed walk, jump, skip, gallop, crab walk, crawl (on mats or grass), slide, walk backwards, etc. Write terms on a large poster. Writing should be large enough for students in a group to read it.

Students visualize the relation between acceleration and velocity in 2 dimensions. They are introduced to Newton's first law,and Newton's second law. Students work on an exploration activity where they condsider an example of a...

Students explore Newton and his Second Law by observing a demonstration involving a can that rolls away, then rolls back to where it started. They construct their own Come Back Can and describe how the cans work.
