Teaching about inclined planes may seem like an uphill battle, but there's a straightforward way to do it. An Honors Physics presentation covers static and kinetic friction, the forces of friction, and inclines. Additionally, it includes example problems for your class to solve independently or as a group.

Instructional Ideas

• Assign to your class for homework or a computer lab activity for a flipped classroom lesson
• Project the presentation onto a whiteboard to make notes during a class discussion

Classroom Considerations

• Prerequisite knowledge of formulas and geometry required

Pros

• Comes with formulas and example problems
• Slides are easy to read and understand

Cons

• Does not include a way to evaluate scholars learning
