Roller Coaster Engineering Project | Energy, Forces & Motion | NGSS | Grades 6–8
Does your class need a project that gets students genuinely excited about physics? This multi-week roller coaster engineering project challenges student teams to design and build a marble-run prototype for a fictional Six Flags client — applying real concepts of potential energy, kinetic energy, forces, motion, Newton's Laws, and speed calculations the whole way through. It's hands-on, standards-aligned, and built for the real classroom. WHAT'S INCLUDED (19 pages):KWL Warm-Up: Energy & Roller

Forces Lab Stations
In this lab station activity, students will move around the classroom exploring different topics related to motion and force, such as Newton’s laws of motion, common forces like gravity, friction, and air resistance, and the law of conservation of momentum. Students will use the materials and instructions provided at each station to conduct demonstrations of motion and force phenomena and will record their observations and make inferences. Each phenomenon observed will be discussed later as a cl

Physics Lesson for Blood Splatter Lab F=M*A GATE Gifted
This PowerPoint makes it easy for Elementary students to understand a fundamental physics equation. We clear up common misconceptions about the speed of falling objects. This would make a great conclusion to a class experiment, or could be used as a jumping off point for individual research.
I used this PowerPoint as a wrap up discussion with my Elementary Gifted students. We used it at the conclusion of a Blood Splatter Lab which asked the question, "How does the distance associated with the i

Roller Coaster Challenge by Learn to Connect STEM
The Roller Challenge by L2C is part of a series of activities that you can use for fun competition in your classroom. The Learn to Connect STEM Challenge series can be integrated into your instruction, implemented for fun end of the week activities, made part of a science club or used without the points and competition to engage your students in curriculum.
In this STEM activity the students will build background on roller coasters by watching a video on the types of energy in roller coasters,

ASTROPHYSICS - It's All Relative with Einstein
ASTROPHYSICS - This workshop follows on from Newton’s Fascinating Forces. After gaining an understanding of Newton’s Laws and the corresponding physics concepts, students are ready to take on Einstein’s theories. The workshop is run as a series of thought experiments, starting with his Annus Mirabalis and culminating in his most complex work, the Theory of General Relativity. By combining practical experiments with thought experiments the outcome from this workshop is a deeper understanding of

Bottle Flip experiment
This is a super fun way to practice many physics concepts, make predictions and evaluate data. I ask parents to send in empty drink bottles.The power point explains the entire process and guides students through all sorts of physics topics. This is low prep and high engagement. You will have lots of noise and excitement! The entire activity will last a couple of class periods, because you will go through the power point and discuss before flipping.
