Force and Motion

Force and Motion

On Friday, we started our next unit....Force and Motion.  We learned about how we know we are moving, by using our Frame of reference and clues that will help us determine if the object is moving...Speed and Velocity.  Today, we did an activity that involved force.  The students had to sit back-back, link their arms together (not use their arms at all!) and try to stand up only using the FORCE between them!  This was a really fun activity for the students (they didn't know why they were doing it).  We discussed why we completed this simulation and ALL students understood that we balanced out our forces to get us to stand up!
