Gravity Experiments for 3rd Grade | Force & Motion Hands-On Activity Lessons
There is more to gravity than just the fact that things fall to the ground. This collection of 11 hands-on balance and gravity experiments help 2nd - 3rd graders get firsthand experience with force and motion as they learn how gravity works, balancing objects, understanding their own center of gravity, and other fun explorations. Each experiment starts off with inquiry: an intriguing question that gets kids excited about finding out the answer—like “What falls faster: a heavy object or a light o

Flight Exploration Introductory Video
This introductory video leads students to begin to explore possible questions they could answer related to the parts of an airplane and the forces of flight.
This video will captivate the attention of your students because it shows an actual flying model in a barrel roll due to aileron movement.
I use aileron movement as my instructional example when describing how moving parts of an airplane can help a pilot use the forces of flight to control the movement of the entire airplane.
Enjoy!
