Words that emerged from our first Fun Physics labs. No answers, only questions and hypotheses!
Motion, inertia, and gravity, OH MY!
Observing, wondering, asking, discussing, discovering motion and inertia. We added more terms to our motion and force concept poster. Grappling with what forces are acting on moving and stationary objects, really trying to notice and figure out this strange phenomena of gravity. Next week, after playing around with lots of systems and motion labs, they will get to compare their observations, notes, and theories with Newton’s Three Laws of Motion.
The Gummi Bears were setting personal writing goals Thursday in Youth Authors!
