This English/Spanish virtual lab uses the PHET Moving Man simulation to explore how Position Vs. Time and Velocity Vs. Time Graphs are related. Students will engage in inquiry to draw their own conclusions about the meaning of values, slopes, and curves on each type of graph. They gather conclusions into a graphic organizer that the teacher can solidify with notes the following day. The lab sheet is best completed digitally by students, but it can also be printed and completed by hand. This lab

Unlock a comprehensive high school physics unit on distance and displacement designed to engage students with clear, detailed explorations of these fundamental concepts. This unit includes a differentiated worksheet with solutions to accommodate diverse learning needs and four quiz versions complete with answer keys to ensure thorough assessment. All materials are provided in both English and Spanish, making this resource versatile and accessible for a wider range of classrooms. Perfect for educ

This English/Spanish Resource pushes students to engage with qualitative and quantitative problems regarding Position vs. Time and Velocity vs. Time graphs of the motion of objects. Questions are broken into two levels for easier differentiation. Questions are all aligned to the Motion Graphs Quizzes. Answer key included!

This English/Spanish unit features an exploratory lab, a leveled practice set, and differentiated quizzes. Motion Graphs Lab allows students to discover the characteristics of Position vs. Time and Velocity vs. Time graphs using the PHET Moving Man simulation; students store their learnings in a graphic organizer. Motion Graphs Leveled Practice takes students through 4 levels of qualitative and quantitative problem solving, preparing them for the aligned Motion Graphs Quizzes.

In this exploratory lab, students use hot wheels cars (or anything else that is fun and rolls!) to explore acceleration. Students will measure time, distance, and angle of elevation, calculate average speed and final speed, and then use their data to calculate acceleration. Students will use data from their lab and background knowledge to create a CER statement differentiating between acceleration and velocity. All materials are in English and in Spanish. Students can complete this document digi

This English/Spanish unit takes students through four sub-units: Distance and Displacement (Unit 1a), Constant Velocity (Unit 1b), Constant Acceleration (Unit 1c), and Motion Graphs (Unit 1d). Each features of combination of exploratory labs, differentiated leveled practice worksheet, and aligned quizzes. All worksheets and quizzes come with answer keys.

This English/Spanish unit features two exploratory labs, a leveled practice set, and differentiated quizzes. Constant Acceleration Lab Part 1 allows students to discover the characteristics of constant acceleration by rolling Hot Wheels cars (or any other rolling objects) down ramps of varying slopes. Constant Acceleration Lab Part 2 pushes students to make conclusions about the interactions between position, velocity, and acceleration using the PHET Moving Man simulation. Constant Accelerati

In this lab, students learn about the relationship between speed, distance, and time through a speed walk race! After seeing who can walk the fastest, they'll perform simple calculations to find their speed, and then they will write a Claim - Evidence - Reasoning statement demonstrating their understanding of key relationships. All materials are in English and Spanish.

4 quiz versions in both English and Spanish. Quizzes are broken into four levels of difficulty (aligned to Distance and Displacement Leveled Practice). Product is suited for mastery-based grading and allows for easy reassessment/reteaching. Answer key for all versions included.

This sub-unit contains the Speed Walk Lab, Constant Velocity Leveled Practice, and aligned Constant Velocity Quizzes. All materials are in English and Spanish and come with Answer keys. Unit should take 5-7 days of class time.

This English/Spanish activity pushes students to activate their prior knowledge about forces, while making predictions about how forces affect every day scenarios. Students work in teams to decide whether or not they agree or disagree with 14 statements about forces, and then assemble the statements into a t-chart that can be revisited as students learn more concepts throughout the unit.

These English/Spanish Assessments allow for a differentiated assessment of student knowledge of Distance vs. Time and Velocity vs. Time graphs. Quizzes assess mastery at four levels, allowing for efficient grading and reassessment. Quizzes align to the Motion Graphs Leveled Practice. Answer key included!

These English/Spanish quizzes align to Constant Acceleration Leveled Practice. They assess students' mastery in four levels, allowing for mastery based grading and easy reassessment. Four quiz versions help support academic integrity and allow for re-takes with different questions. Answer keys included!

This English/Spanish resource allows students to practice making calculations about objects moving with constant acceleration, in a differentiated, leveled approach. Complete with answer key, students move through four levels of increasing difficulty allowing for targeted interventions and mastery checks. This is aligned to the Constant Acceleration Quizzes.

This lab uses the Moving Man simulation from PHET to allow students to explore the differences between velocity and acceleration and both of their effects on motion. Students are tasked with getting their man to move in specific ways by adjusting his position, velocity, and acceleration. In doing so, they form conclusions about how each affects direction of motion and speed. All materials are in English and Spanish. This lab can be completed digitally or by hand by students.

These English/Spanish quizzes align to Constant Velocity Leveled Practice. They assess students' mastery in four levels, allowing for mastery based grading and easy reassessment. Four quiz versions help support academic integrity and allow for re-takes with different questions. Answer keys included!

This English/Spanish resource allows students to practice making calculations about objects moving with constant velocity, in a differentiated, leveled approach. Complete with answer key, students move through four levels of increasing difficulty allowing for targeted interventions and mastery checks. This is aligned to the Constant Velocity Quizzes.

This multi-day worksheet provides a leveled approach to distance and displacement calculations, allowing for differentiation and mastery based grading. Purchase includes English and Spanish versions, full answer key, and example problems.

This English/Spanish activity pushes students to activate their prior knowledge about forces by working to come up words that relate to forces starting with each letter of the alphabet. This works best as the first activity in a forces unit and can be done in small groups or as a whole class.

This resource allows students to explore the differences between distance and displacement by analyzing the longest play in NFL history. The document comes in English and Spanish versions, and can be done digitally or by hand.
