Description

Flexible Lesson Plan & Virtual Resource for teachers:  Use this specific document for virtual learning OR print out and give to students to use in an in-class scenario.

Students learn about parachutes, gravity, and air friction. Using the engineering design process, they design, build, test, and refine ideas. They are also able to collaborate with peers virtually to give and receive feedback on their designs.

Suggested use with Google Classroom.

ISTE: Empowered Learner: 1a, 1b, 1c -- Digital Citizen: 2a, 2b, 2c -- Innovative Designer: 4a, 4c, 4d -- Creative Communicator: 6c, 6d -- Global Collaborator: 7b, 7c

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
NGSSMS-ETS1-2
Evaluate competing design solutions using a systematic process to determine how well they meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.
NGSSMS-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. Examples of evidence for arguments could include data generated from simulations or digital tools; and charts displaying mass, strength of interaction, distance from the Sun, and orbital periods of objects within the solar system. Assessment does not include Newton’s Law of Gravitation or Kepler’s Laws.
NGSSMS-ETS1-4
Develop a model to generate data for iterative testing and modification of a proposed object, tool, or process such that an optimal design can be achieved.
