Forces and Motion

It's been a while since I have updated the classroom Science Blog!!  We have started our new unit- Forces and Motion.  So far, we have learned that Motion is relative!  We learned about position, distance, and reference points.

Last week we looked further into speed, graphing speed, and velocity.  This week we will continue learning about Motion as we dive into acceleration!  

Velocity, Speed, and Acceleration Song!!



Some questions to think about... 

How are speed, velocity, and acceleration related?

When would knowing velocity be important and not just speed?

What are some examples of speed and velocity in our everyday lives?
