Students will obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about the relationship between balanced and unbalanced forces.
Students will make observations and/or measurements of an object’s motion to provide evidence that a pattern can be used to predict future motion.
It’s barge building time! During this mission you will experiment with forces and how to balance them. You’ll become an expert in mass, calculating cargo and the best part…there’s water!!!! Let’s get started!
Complete each task below to practice for your event. Think about the following questions as you work...
How did you made your barge?
What item did you use to fill it?
How many items did you fit in before it sank?
What worked and didn't work.
