If You Force It, It Will Move – Grade Nine 1
If You Force It, It Will Move – Grade Nine 1
Description:
The purpose of this unit is to help students understand physical sciences concepts and principles that describe and predict physical events and interactions. In this unit, students will investigate and use Newton's laws of motion to describe and predict motions of common objects in controlled experiments (e.g., balls rolling, wood blocks sliding) and in real-world contexts (e.g., walking, rollerblading, braking). Students will describe and predict the effects of gravitational force and frictional force on motion. Knowledge and skills refined in this unit will support students generating a variety of products and performances culminating in a unit science portfolio. Inquiry skills and accurate understanding of the concepts and principles of forces and motion are emphasized.
