Colliding Objects Lab (Collisions)
In this lab, students collide various objects together to demonstrate Newton's 3rd Law of Motion (action-reaction forces). This was a huge hit with my 6th grade science classes because my students were "playing" with toy cars and tennis balls, while still learning the physics behind a collision. This includes all steps of the scientific method, along with a full rubric to assess students' learning.

Sound Waves in Instruments Lab
3 Part Discovery Lab (Part A- Wine Glasses B- Glass Bottles C- Musical Straw)
Inquiry-based approach to teaching students how different objects naturally have different frequencies (resonant frequencies).My students loved being able to "explore" sound instead of just practicing wave vocab over and over. This lab focuses on how all sounds are produced by vibrations, how high pitched sounds are caused by fast vibrations ( and vice-versa) and how high pitched sounds are represented by high freque

Motion & Forces Bloom Ball Project
This is a week-long project in which students create a Bloom Ball (12-sided figure) about motion & forces. Each side of the Bloom Ball focuses on a different aspect of motion & forces (i.e. Newton's Laws, gravity, potential & kinetic energy, etc.). This is a great project if you're looking to assess students' learning, as it asks them to define key terms and draw their own examples of the various concepts related to motion & forces. Excellent classroom decoration once they're fin

Lab - Practicing using spring scales
Good lab activity that allows students to investigate and compare Newton Forces and mass in grams. It is a word document so you can change the mass weights that you use. My lab was written for the mass weights I have. I prep them by introducing them to mass and weigh then I let them do the activity. Questions at the end allow them to discuss what they have done. I go over the questions after the lab.
