Link for Google Form for Newton County Fair Force and Motion

Escape Room

Friday/Monday, 12/16 January, 2018

ESSENTIAL QUESTION: Why do we wear a seatbelt? 

LEARNING TARGET: Determine the force of attraction between objects in the universe. 

BENCHMARKS: SC.912.P.12.3

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:  Students will be able to:

-Determine how motion and restraints affect a person in a moving vehicle.

-describe how the gravitational force between two objects depends on their masses and the distance between them.

BELL RINGER: NA

VOCABULARY: force, weight, mass, tension, compression, balanced, unbalanced, frictional forces, equilibrium, normal and net force, inertia

HOME LEARNING: project

AGENDA

WHOLE GROUP

Students spent the entire class period working on their project, either with experimentation or writing up the project, using the lab rubrics, in powerpoint form.

LEARNING TARGET: Determine the force of attraction between objects in the universe. 

BENCHMARKS: SC.912.P.12.3

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:  Students will be able to:

-Determine how motion and restraints affect a person in a moving vehicle.

-describe how the gravitational force between two objects depends on their masses and the distance between them.

BELL RINGER: 

Rank the universal gravitation

VOCABULARY: force, weight, mass, tension, compression, balanced, unbalanced, frictional forces, equilibrium, normal and net force, inertia

HOME LEARNING: notebook update

AGENDA

WHOLE GROUP

Students ranked the planets and moons according to their universal gravitation.

Home learning 6 was collected and reviewed.

We spent more time practicing how to solve universal gravitation problems.

Students then continued work on their restraint project.

Monday/Tuesday, 8/9 January, 2018

ESSENTIAL QUESTION: Why do we wear a seatbelt? 

LEARNING TARGET: Determine the force of attraction between objects in the universe. 

BENCHMARKS: SC.912.P.12.3

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:  Students will be able to:

-Determine how motion and restraints affect a person in a moving vehicle.

-describe how the gravitational force between two objects epends on their masses and the distance between them.

BELL RINGER: Write your CER for your project.

VOCABULARY: force, weight, mass, tension, compression, balanced, unbalanced, frictional forces, equilibrium, normal and net force, inertia

HOME LEARNING: HL 6 Universal Gravitation

AGENDA

WHOLE GROUP

Students were asked to write the CER for their Restraints project as their bell ringer.

We watched a BrainPop on Gravity, which you can view by clinking the link below and signing in with the username amsbartow and the password ams13.

BrainPop Gravity

Students received HL 6, which can be found above.

We practiced answering several universal gravitation equation problems whole class.

Students then continued work on their Restraints project, writing up their project as a slide show using Office 365.
