Physics September 28 - October 4, 2015

For Metric Monday, we will measure length in meters, centimeters, and millimeters then use the information to create each individual's "Official Metric Identity" card.  This week we will focus on height, arm span, hand span (R & L), foot length (R&L).  This should be fun!

We will continue to discuss Newton's Three Laws of Motion and identify real-life examples.  This week we will observe potential and kinetic energy and experiment with odds-and-ends (spools, rubber  bands, toy cars, Popsicle sticks...)

It is time to get serious about this marble roller coaster project.  I will make team assignments, give you a project planning worksheet, and we will get started!
