Class Description
Get ready to move! The brand-new Motion and Simple Machines course is filled with hands-on activities! Students will learn about motion and force, gravity, pulleys, levers, and so much more in this one-of-a-kind unit study. See Newton’s laws put into action and document the ways machines make our lives easier. Then build your own machine on our unique “Project Day” final lesson!
(I will have to pick a few of these weeks to take out to factor in our 9 weeks of campus days, leaving week 9 as our project day.)
