Muscles in Motion
Students identify the muscles and body motions of the human body. For this physiology lesson, students participate in different body motions to discover and explore the muscles that they use in their arms. Students discuss the names of...
Curated OER
Motion
Sixth graders read about and study motion. They conduct a lab in which they calculate speed using track records at their school. They graph the results and then invite a guest speaker (an officer from the local police department) who...
Curated OER
Car Engines
Students create piston systems and explore the conversion of linear to rotary motion that propels a car. In this motion lesson, students build and test a model piston/crankshift system and discover why there is a maximum limit to how...
Curated OER
On The Move
Eighth graders engage in a lesson to investigate the Laws of Motion while observing different examples with the use of video lessons. They predict why objects move the way they do and then apply the new knowledge to identify the specific...

Varying Motion
For this secondary mathematics learning exercise, high schoolers collect data based on a person’s motion. From this data, students create graphs comparing displacement, velocity, and acceleration to time. The five-page learning exercise...
Curated OER
Acceleration 2
In this acceleration worksheet, students experiment with varying amounts of mass to observe the effects on the force needed to move an object. Students apply Newton's Second Law of Motion to describe the relationship between mass and...
