Objects in Motion Lesson Plan
When studying forces and Newton's Laws of motion, students started asking a lot of questions about speed and how to make things faster. This lesson was developed to take advantage of their curiosity, allow them to make choices based on their connections to real experiences and to work collaboratively. They chose objects that move and tested levels of friction to see how the objects sped up or slowed down. Then they created posters or multi media presentations to present their results to the class.
