Instructional Ideas

  • Use the presentation template to teach the lesson and save the video for students who were absent, or for when you need a substitute

Classroom Considerations

  • Requires prior knowledge of formulas
  • Lesson best fits as an introduction to physical science rather than as an introduction to the topic of motion
  • The first lesson in a 26-part series

Pros

  • Includes five pages of practice problems
  • Provides lecture notes and important formulas

Cons

  • Alignment is off on slide 12, which can be confusing when trying to solve the equation
