The Scientific Method - "The Bigger They Are, The Harder They Fall" Experiment

Created by

Serabian Science Store

The purpose of this activity is to allow students to think critically to answer a seemingly simple question. In this case, does a larger object fall harder than a small object? The students will need to use the scientific method to determine a way to answer that question. They will also need to design a test to empirically show that a bigger object lands with more force than a smaller one. This is a really unique experiment so that students can start thinking about the basics of physics. It

The purpose of this activity is to allow students to think critically to answer a seemingly simple question. In this case, it’s an old adage that states that multiple people on the same job will get it done faster than only one. The tricky part about this question is that there are also adages stating the opposite, such as “too many cooks in the kitchen spoil the broth.” So, which is correct? The students will need to use the scientific method to determine a way to answer that question. The
