Learning Objective
Students will learn that gravity is a force that attracts and it is influenced by mass and distance.
Description
Gravity and Mass Unit for Middle School: Students will learn that gravity is a force that attracts and is influenced by the mass and distance of interacting objects. Students will love learning about gravity in these lessons. Students will construct arguments based on evidence to support the claim that gravitational interactions are attractive and depend on the masses of interacting objects in the MS NGSS and Utah SEEd 7th Grade resource.
This resource aligns with NGSS Middle School Standard
MS-PS2-4.
Construct and present arguments using evidence to support the claim that gravitational interactions are attractive and depend on the masses of interacting objects.
And also Utah SEEd
Standard 7.1.5Â
Engaging in argument from evidence to support the claim that gravitational interactions within a system are attractive and dependent upon the masses of interacting objects.
The unit includes:
- a slide show on Gravity
- a strategic note-taking guide
- graphing activities
- an article to read
- QR code research
- making arguments from evidence gathered
- word wall words
- interactive notebook inserts
- informational text passages
- response pages
- assessment
- answer keys
This resource includes interactive notebook inserts, informational text passages, response pages, and more. Â
