This is a guided inquiry-based lab that investigates forces exerted on a group of student-designed and engineered "balloon cars". Each group of students is then challenged to build a "balloon car" that travels a maximum distance.
This activity is a field investigation where students will gather data on …
This activity is a field investigation where students will gather data on speed, acceleration, gravity, friction, and forces. They will design and conduct an investigation.
This activity needs large linoleum, carpet and tar or asphalt space to …
This activity needs large linoleum, carpet and tar or asphalt space to race student constructed balloon powered cars. Students will learn that speed, velocity, and changes in velocity are the result of the action of forces on objects
This physics activity is a projectile motion / gravity investigation where students …
This physics activity is a projectile motion / gravity investigation where students drop and shoot (horizontally) soft balls from different heights and record the time taken to hit the ground. Students make a trendline to predict the time it will take the ball to hit the ground from a certain height. Students will also discover that shot and dropped balls hit the ground at the same time.
This activity is a guided inquiry investigation where students will propose a …
This activity is a guided inquiry investigation where students will propose a question on what makes an electromagnet stronger. They will conduct a controlled experiment to answer their own question.
This activity is an inquiry investigation where students manipulate a variety of …
This activity is an inquiry investigation where students manipulate a variety of objects in a variety of situations to develop an understanding of inertia.
This activity is an indoor structured inquiry lab activity where students will …
This activity is an indoor structured inquiry lab activity where students will use various types of M&Ms as a model for isotopes. Students will design a procedure to determine average atomic mass.
Students use media resources and an in-class investigation to explore the types …
Students use media resources and an in-class investigation to explore the types of energy within different types of systems. They also use the formulas for kinetic and potential energy to examine the path of a projectile.
This activity is lab oriented where students will observe that light travels …
This activity is lab oriented where students will observe that light travels in a straight line and is reflected, redirected, absorbed, or passes through objects.
