Homework for May 25th

Hi everyone,

   First, I'd like for you to reflect on what I said today about concentration.  Although you have grown a lot as students in the last year, I hope to see us learn to concentrate as a group.  That means we need to help each other stay on task.  We need to remind each other to stay focused.

Second, here's a flashback!  What a fun activity that was!

Remember your homework for today is to:

1. Watch the videos on the class blog.
2. Draw a visualization of Newton’s Third Law and write a sentence in your own words.
3. Complete the vocabulary activity with a dictionary.

**Students who have missed class recently: First, rest, recover, sleep and drink lots of water! We need you back to class feeling full of energy! Watch the videos below and continue reading the Force and Motion book. Do independent research using YouTube to enrich your learning.

Videos for today!

What is a pendulum? A pendulum is a stick or piece of string that has a weight at the bottom. It swings back and forth at a constant rate.

Next, here's a clip from a Bill Nye video about Force and Motion.

The third short video is about FRICTION!  

Last but not least, here is a video of the three Laws of Motion explained using a bicycle as an example.  The first two are easy to understand and the third is challenging.

Have fun and talk with your parents about all the fun things you are learning!
