Curated OER
Learning about gravity
Learn how to measure weight with newtons in a science experiment about gravity. After they read a short paragraph about force, fifth graders draw an arrow to indicate which way a spring is being pulled. Next, they survey their family...
Curated OER
Guesstimate that Side!
Each slide displays a block and the forces acting on it. Physics pupils consider the angles and figure the one marked in red without using a calculator. This would be a great way to activate learners' brains and practice mental math. Use...
Curated OER
Worksheet 5 - Vectors & Physics
In this vectors worksheet, students determine the amount of work it takes to move objects, they determine if vectors are parallel or orthogonal and identify the displacement direction and the force direction. This one-page worksheet...
Curated OER
Forces
In this forces worksheet, students read about force and acceleration. They complete a Venn Diagram to compare and contrast balanced and unbalanced forces, they answer questions about a diagram of a tug-a-war and the forces acting on each...
Curated OER
What is Gravity?
For this gravity worksheet, students will compare the difference between mass and weight and the unit of measurement used for weight and mass. Then students will compare the weight of objects on the Earth and on other planets. This...
