Center1 –The basics of motion

LAGLE--Science--Grade 6--PS--MOF: 14 Construct and analyze graphs that

represent one-dimensional motion (i.e., motion in a straight line) and predict the
future positions and speed of a moving object

Breakfast- Using an object capable of rolling and a ramp, measure acceleration at 2

different angles. Make a graph showing your results. Remember you must do each slope
trial 3 times and average your results. Explain why the results were different.

Lunch - Using 2 different objects capable of rolling and a ramp, measure acceleration at
2 different angles. Remember you must do each slope trial 3 times and average your
results. Make a graph showing your results. Explain why the results were different.

Dinner- Use several objects capable of rolling and a ramp to measure acceleration at 3
different angles. Remember you must do each slope trial 3 times and average your
results. Make a graph showing your results. Explain why the results were different.
Center 2
LAGLE--Science--Grade 6--PS--MOF: 15
Explain why velocity is expressed in both speed and direction
Center 3 Graphing
LAGLE--Science--Grade 6--PS--MOF: 16
Compare line graphs of acceleration, constant speed, and deceleration

Breakfast---Using the computer program, make a graph showing constant speed,

acceleration, and deceleration. Answer the questions.

Lunch- Use the sensor to create a graph of constant speed, acceleration and deceleration.
Print out your graph. Answer the questions
Center 4 Friction
LAGLE--Science--Grade 6--PS--MOF: 17
Describe and demonstrate that friction is a force that acts whenever
two surfaces or objects move past one another

Breakfast- Using an object capable of rolling, at least 2 different surface types and a
ramp, measure how friction effects acceleration. Make a graph showing your results.
Remember you must do each slope trial 3 times and average your results. Explain why
the results were different.

Lunch - Using an object capable of rolling, at least 4 different surface types and a ramp,
measure how friction effects acceleration Remember you must do each slope trial 3 times
and average your results. Make a graph showing your results. Explain why the results
were different.

Dinner- Using an object capable of rolling, at least 4 different surface types and a ramp,
measure how friction effects acceleration Remember you must do each slope trial 3 times
and average your results. Make a graph showing your results. Explain why the results
were different.
Center 5 Forces

LAGLE--Science--Grade 6--PS--MOF: 19
Identify forces acting on all objects
LAGLE--Science--Grade 6--PS--MOF: 20
Draw and label a diagram to represent forces acting on an
object LAGLE--Science--Grade 6--PS--MOF: 21
Determine the magnitude and direction of unbalanced (i.e.,
net) forces acting on an object

Breakfast- do the worksheets marked breakfast

Lunch - do the worksheets marked Lunch

Dinner- - do the worksheets marked Dinner

Center 6
LAGLE--Science--Grade 6--PS--MOF: 22
Demonstrate that an object will remain at rest or move at a constant
speed and in a straight line if it is not subjected to an unbalanced force
LAGLE--Science--Grade 6--PS--MOF: 23
Predict the direction of a force applied to an object and
how it will change the speed and direction of the object
