In science we will begin our unit on Force and Motion. The first set of vocabulary words on force are here. Motion words are here.
Over the next few week students will:
- Identify familiar forces that cause objects to move, such as pushes or pulls, including gravity acting on falling objects.
- Investigate and describe that the greater the force applied to it, the greater the change in motion of a given object.
- Investigate and describe that the more mass an object has, the less effect a given force will have on the object's motion.
- Define a problem, use appropriate reference materials to support scientific understanding, plan and carry out scientific investigations of various types such as: systematic observations, experiments requiring the identification of variables collecting and organizing data, interpreting data in charts, tables, and graphics, analyze information, make predictions, and defend conclusions
- Recognize and explain that when scientific investigations are carried out, the evidence produced by those investigations should be replicable by others.
