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.
