Week of Oct 3-7
We are continuing our exploration of Invisible Forces.
Students will continue to investigate balanced and unbalanced forces with both contact and non contact forces including gravity and magnetism. We have finished our Hopper Test, but will continue experiments with other objects including robber balls and ping pong balls to explore how mass effects force.
I can explore the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the motion of an object.
I can discuss what forces cause motion.
I can utilize and discuss the 8 scientific and Engineering practices when investigating forces in class.
Scientific Practices
Planning and Conducting investigations
Observing Evidence
Using mathematical skills
Collecting data
buidling and designing models based on observations.
Using fair test with constants/controls and variables
