Week of Oct 17-21
We are continuing our exploration of forces and motion.
Students have investigated balanced and unbalanced forces with both contact and non contact forces including, all types of pushes and pulls like magnetism, friction and gravity. Students will begin this week taking an assessment to demonstrate mastery of these concepts.
Following the assessment, we will classify and compare different forms of energy. Students will also observe and discuss how energy causes motion and creates change. (different forms)
Important new vocabulary:
Potential energy
Kinetic Energy
