A three part 1500+ PowerPoint slideshow from www.sciencepowerpoint.com becomes the roadmap for an interactive and amazing science experience that includes a bundled homework package, answer keys, unit notes, video links, review games, built-in quizzes and hands-on activities, worksheets, rubrics, games, and much more.
Also included are instruction to create a student version of the unit that is much like the teachers but missing the answer keys, quizzes, PowerPoint review games, hidden box challenges, owl, and surprises meant for the classroom. This is a great resource to distribute to your students and support professionals.
Text for the unit PowerPoint is presented in large print (32 font) and is placed at the top of each slide so it can seen and read from all angles of a classroom. A shade technique, as well as color coded text helps to increase student focus and allows teacher to control the pace of the lesson. Also included is a 12 page assessment / bundled homework that chronologically follows the slideshow for nightly homework and the end of the unit assessment, as well as a 8 page modified assessment. 9 pages of class notes with images are also included for students who require assistance, as well as answer keys to both of the assessments for support professionals, teachers, and homeschool parents. Many video links are provided and a slide within the slideshow cues teacher / parent when the videos are most relevant to play. Video shorts usually range from 2-7 minutes and are included in organized folders. Two PowerPoint Review games are included. Answers to the PowerPoint Review Games are provided in PowerPoint form so students can self-assess. Lastly, several class games such as guess the hidden picture beneath the boxes, and the find the hidden owl somewhere within the slideshow are provided. Difficulty rating of 8 (Ten is most difficult).
Areas of Focus: -Newton's First Law, Inertia, Friction, Four Types of Friction, Negatives and Positives of Friction, Newton's Third Law, Newton's Second Law, Potential Energy, Kinetic Energy, Mechanical Energy, Forms of Potential to Kinetic Energy, Speed, Velocity, Acceleration, Deceleration, Momentum, Work, Machines (Joules), Catapults, Trajectory, Force, Simple Machines, Pulley / (MA Mechanical Advantage), Lever /(MA),Wedge /(MA), Wheel and Axle (MA), Inclined Plane / (MA), Screw /(MA).
This unit aligns with the Next Generation Science Standards and with Common Core Standards for ELA and Literacy for Science and Technical Subjects. See preview for more information

Teaching Duration = 4+ Weeks
1. • Activity! Simulating Newton’s Cradle.
– Six students stand in a tight line with each
other.
– Teacher will gently push student at the end.
– Volunteer student will catch the person at the
front.
4. -Nice neat notes that are legible and use indentations
when appropriate.
-Example of indent.
-Skip a line between topics
-Make visuals clear and well drawn. Please label.

Resistance Arm
10. • Table Tennis: For every action, there is an
equal and opposite reaction. (Optional)
– How does this sport relate to Newton’s 3rd
Law?

11. • Activity Demonstration! Blast-Off
– Safety Goggles Required.
– Teacher breaks Alka-Seltzer into four pieces.
– Teacher fills film canister ½ with water.
– Teacher quickly drops in the Alka-Seltzer.
tablet and snaps on film canister cap.
– Teacher quickly places upside down on floor
so all can see. Stand Back!

18. • Activity! Simulating Newton’s Cradle.
– Six students stand in a tight line with each

– Teacher will gently push student at the end.
– Volunteer student will catch the person at the
front.
19. • Video! Slip n’ Fly
– http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wAjpMP5eyo
– Disprove the validity of this stunt using Newtons
Third Law
20. • Answer: This stunt is fake because when
he hits the pool the water goes up instead
of in the opposite direction from the force.
24. • Video! Slip n’ Fly
– He also does not have the speed necessary
to go that far. The PE and KE do not add up.
25. • Video! Slip n’ Fly
– He also does not have the speed necessary
to go that far. The PE and KE do not add up.
– I believe he accelerates in the air as well?
26. • Video! Slip n’ Fly
– He also does not have the speed necessary
to go that far. The PE and KE do not add up.
– I believe he accelerates in the air as well?
– The pool does not shift in the opposite
direction from a side impact.
27. • Video! Slip n’ Fly
– He also does not have the speed necessary
to go that far. The PE and KE do not add up.
– I believe he accelerates in the air as well?
– The pool does not shift in the opposite
direction from a side impact.
– He would most likely skip on the surface
tension of the water into the hillside.
28. • Mythbusters Slip n’ Fly (Optional)

– Note: Word H_ _ _ is used.
34. • Activity! Rollerblades or Skateboards and
Newton’s 3rd Law.
– Students must wear helmets and have
spotters nearby.
– Stand tall on skateboard or roller blades
(parallel) so forces can be clearly seen.
– Students demonstrate the following.
• Push off of each other slowly.
• Pass a basketball back and fourth.
72. • Video! Review! Newton’s 3rd Law of
Motion in Space with ESA.
