- Force Gr. 5-8
1
Forces are at work all around us. Our resource makes this invisible world easy to "see" and understand. Start by identifying what a force is before looking at different kinds of forces. Conduct several experiments on the force of friction and air resistance. Learn about net force and how more than one force acts on an object. Understand that acceleration and deceleration are examples of unbalanced forces. Explore how the force and mass of an arrow will affect its motion during flight. Explain how the force of gravity affects the weight of an object. Finally, take a look at magnetic and electrostatic forces as examples of forces that act without touching. Aligned to the Next Generation State Standards and written to Bloom's Taxonomy and STEAM initiatives, additional hands-on experiments, crossword, word search, comprehension quiz and answer key are also included.
- Motion Gr. 5-8
2
Take the mystery out of motion. Our resource gives you everything you need to teach young scientists about motion. Start off by learning about speed and distance. Recognize if things are standing still or in motion. Graph the velocity of students walking home from school at different speeds. Identify when a skydiver is accelerating during their jump. Follow directions to find your way using a treasure map. Find out about frequency and pitch in vibrating motion. Conduct an experiment with a bicycle wheel and office chair to learn about circular motion. Finally, identify the wavelength and amplitude on a wave. Aligned to the Next Generation State Standards and written to Bloom's Taxonomy and STEAM initiatives, additional hands-on experiments, crossword, word search, comprehension quiz and answer key are also included.
- Simple Machines Gr. 5-8
3
Just how simple are simple machines? Our resource makes these machines simple to teach and easy to learn. Understand that work is when a thing moves in the direction that a force is acting on it. Conduct an experiment with first-class levers to study distance and force. Explain how a wheel and axle can be used as a lever. Identify the three different kinds of pulleys. Find the resistance force when walking up an inclined plane. Figure out the direction of the effort force when using a wedge to split a log. Explain how a screw is a kind of inclined plane. Visit a hardware store to find as many simple and complex machines as possible. Aligned to the Next Generation State Standards and written to Bloom's Taxonomy and STEAM initiatives, additional hands-on experiments, crossword, word search, comprehension quiz and answer key are also included.
- Force, Motion & Simple Machines Big Book Gr. 5-8
4
Give your students a kick start on learning with our Force and Motion 3-book BUNDLE. Students begin by exploring different Forces. Conduct several experiments on the force of friction and air resistance. Understand that acceleration and deceleration are examples of unbalanced forces. Next, take the mystery out of Motion. Graph the velocity of students walking home from school at different speeds. Follow directions to find your way using a treasure map. Finally, get familiar with Simple Machines. Conduct an experiment with first-class levers to study distance and force. Find the resistance force when walking up an inclined plane. Each concept is paired with hands-on activities and experiments. Aligned to the Next Generation State Standards and written to Bloom's Taxonomy and STEAM initiatives, additional crossword, word search, comprehension quiz and answer key are also included.
