In this unit, students apply what they have previously learned about forces, motion, and matter to the solar system, focusing on the phenomena of gravity’s role in the universe. In this lesson, students engineer a solution to collisions between moving objects in space. This page is a high-level extract of this lesson.
In this unit, students explore the science phenomenon of electric currents and electrical energy. In this lesson, students figure out energy transfers, electricity, and circuits in the context of an electromagnetic motor system. This page showcases each key section of this lesson.
In this unit, students build on their knowledge of energy by exploring the relationship between energy and matter. In this lesson students conduct an investigation into the science phenomenon of how energy is transferred in an endothermic reaction. This page provides an overview of this lesson.
