Force: Force & Mass Gr. 5-8


Book Description

**This is the chapter slice "Force & Mass" from the full lesson plan "Force"** Forces are at work all around us. Discover what a force is, and different kinds of forces that work on contact and at a distance. We use simple language and vocabulary to make this invisible world easy for students to “see” and understand. Examine how forces “add up” to create the total force on an object, and reinforce concepts and extend learning with sample problems. Students will learn about balanced and unbalanced forces, weight and gravity, and magnetic and electrostatic forces, and much more. Written for remedial students in grades 5 to eight. Reading passages, activities for before and after reading, and color mini posters make both teaching and learning a breeze. Crossword, Word Search, comprehension quiz, and test prep included. All of our content is aligned to your State Standards and are written to Bloom's Taxonomy and STEM initiatives.




Force, Motion & Simple Machines Big Book Gr. 5-8


Book Description

Give your students a kick start on learning with our Force and Motion 3-book BUNDLE. Students begin by exploring different Forces. Conduct several experiments on the force of friction and air resistance. Understand that acceleration and deceleration are examples of unbalanced forces. Next, take the mystery out of Motion. Graph the velocity of students walking home from school at different speeds. Follow directions to find your way using a treasure map. Finally, get familiar with Simple Machines. Conduct an experiment with first-class levers to study distance and force. Find the resistance force when walking up an inclined plane. Each concept is paired with hands-on activities and experiments. Aligned to the Next Generation State Standards and written to Bloom's Taxonomy and STEAM initiatives, additional crossword, word search, comprehension quiz and answer key are also included.

Force Gr. 5-8


Book Description

Forces are at work all around us. Our resource makes this invisible world easy to "see" and understand. Start by identifying what a force is before looking at different kinds of forces. Conduct several experiments on the force of friction and air resistance. Learn about net force and how more than one force acts on an object. Understand that acceleration and deceleration are examples of unbalanced forces. Explore how the force and mass of an arrow will affect its motion during flight. Explain how the force of gravity affects the weight of an object. Finally, take a look at magnetic and electrostatic forces as examples of forces that act without touching. Aligned to the Next Generation State Standards and written to Bloom's Taxonomy and STEAM initiatives, additional hands-on experiments, crossword, word search, comprehension quiz and answer key are also included.
