Net Force and Free Body Diagrams Powerpoint
This lesson teaches students about the forces that act on an object (normal, frictional, gravitational, and applied) and walks them through the steps on how to draw and analyze free body diagrams. There are 4 example problems included along with video and website links to deepen understanding. You will also receive a student note sheet and foldable. This lesson does not have examples where the forces are acting in different angles (not meant for higher levels of physics) but is a great overview

Halloween Physics Color by Number Pumpkin Velocity, Acc, Free Fall
I've included both a one page portrait version and a 2 page version. Some teachers prefer the two pages because it makes a nicer picture to hang up, but it is more copying. Get your inner ghoul on, have fun doing this Halloween worksheet. It's truly frightening. Answer the questions on the question sheet and match up the answer with its color. So if the answer to number 1 matches up with the color yellow, where ever you see the #1, color it yellow. Example problems: 1. A witch is riding her bro

Free Body Diagrams
Worksheet with sixteen different scenarios where students are asked to identify the forces present in each so they can draw the relating free body diagram.
Whenever I do this, I try to demonstrate each scenario at the front of the classroom. For example, I have strings hanging from the ceiling where I can easily attach different masses, springs, pulleys, etc. in an effort to mimic the illustrations shown in the worksheet. With each demonstration, we then go through and discuss what forces are
