Hands-On - Physical Science: Force and Motion Gr. 1-5


Book Description

**This is the chapter slice "Force and Motion Gr. 1-5" from the full lesson plan "Hands-On - Physical Science"** Get your students excited about energy and all things that move with our Hands-On Physical Science resource for grades 1-5. Combining Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math, this resource aligns to the STEAM initiatives and Next Generation Science Standards. Study balanced and unbalanced forces by dropping different objects to measure the effect of gravity and air resistance on them. Measure the distance of lightning by watching and listening for thunder. Get into groups and make models of water, sound and light waves. Experience static electricity first hand by getting a balloon to magically stick to a wall. Describe a solid, liquid and gas around your home by its properties. Make a compound machine with your classmates by combining at least two simple machines. Each concept is paired with hands-on experiments and comprehension activities to ensure your students are engaged and fully understand the concepts. Reading passages, graphic organizers, before you read and assessment activities are included.

THE THEORY OF LIGHT GRAVITY


Book Description

Some discoveries have shaken the world and left their mark in an important way. Newton’s Theory of Gravity, Darwin’s Theory of Evolution and Einstein’s Theories of Relativity come immediately to mind. One thing they have in common is a bold and brave new idea. When these new theories are eventually accepted they become pillars of science and more importantly foundations of society. Then, occasionally a new idea comes along that rattles one of these pillars. My new idea should do just that, shake but not topple our theory of gravity. Hopefully it will bring gravity to the masses not just add more mass to gravity theory. It solves Newton’s mystery and Einstein’s enigma, supports most current gravity theory, but adds a new dimension to physics and will become a major part of the new gravity pillar of physics.
