Forces Gizmo : page 35

Picture
Today we completed a Gizmo called Force and Fan cars.  Before we started the gizmo I has students answer the two warm-up questions on the front of their assignment.

As a class we completed the Gizmo and filled in the appropriate information.  I have placed this Gizmo in their class on www.explorelearning.com and they are encouraged to revisit it and try different combinations of speed and weight.

After discussing forces for the past few days I asked the kids to write me a haiku over the topic.  To help them out I had them write down the rules for a haiku and then gave them an example of one.
