Students will apply Newtons Third Law to design a solution to a problem involving the motion of two
Students will plan an investigation to provide evidence that the change in an objects motion depends o
forces on the object and the mass of the object.
National Standards
MS-PS2-1
Apply Newtons Third Law to design a solution to a problem involving
the motion of two colliding objects.
RST.6-8.3
Follow precisely a multistep procedure when carrying out experiments,
taking measurements, or performing technical tasks.
7.EE.B.4
Use variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical
problem, and construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems by
reasoning about the quantities.
Management Framework
Overall Time-
90 minute lesson
*Use a real life example of space vs. earth, cars, and crashing into wall.
Demonstrate the Three Newton Laws via Prezi.
Body and Transitions
I will then pass out the note-taking guide that accompanies the Prezi.
http://prezi.com/d1qr5_vjkif7/?utm_campaign=share&utm_medium=copy
to use them and record their findings. The class will record the results in the
respected boxes on the lab guide they were given.
Closure
The class will clean up their lab supplies and instruments and return to the
classroom. I will make sure the lab areas are clean, the lab guides are completed,
and answer any additional questions.
The lab will be summarized as a group to conclude that the class got the same
results and understands why they are the way they are.
Assessment
Diagnostic
To assess prior knowledge, I will start the bell ringer about clouds to conclude that
they can recall the material that has been taught for a week. We will then start on
the smartboard slideshow and notes that the class will take on the new information.
I will make sure that everyone is participating and offering answers relating to the
new content (Objective 1).
Formative
The students will complete the guide on Newtons Laws to apply the knowledge that
was covered on the Smartboard (Objective 1). I will walk around to ensure the class
is on task and making myself available for questions.
Summative
During the closure of the lesson, I will collect the lab. The lab guide will be
completed with their findings about Newtons Third Law (Objective 2).
Materials
Smartboard, pencil, paper, notebook, note taking work sheet, physics lab guide, and
balloon car instruments:
Car
Balance
Balloons
Meter Stick
Timer
Extended Handout
If Student Finishes Early
If students finish early, the students may look on their devices for a
demonstration of Newtons Three Laws in action.
If Lesson Finishes Early
The students will write a paragraph to summarize their results found
during the lab.
If Technology Fails
I can use the whiteboard instead of the smartboard if technology fails
to introduce these new concepts. I could also print out the slideshow so each
student has their own copy to follow and take notes from. Since the lab does not
require technology, the students can observe with their eyes and ears just as they
normally would.

In easier words:
For every action, there is an equal but
opposite reaction.
Textbook Examples:
1 A paddle pushes against the water and
the water pushes back on the paddle with
an equal reaction force.
