15 Min Learning Intention:

22-23

I am learning to make predictions about how forces change motion. Success Criteria: I’ll know I’m successful when I’ve made a prediction. I am learning to complete an investigation, so I can learn about the relationship between force and motion. Success Criteria: I’ll know I’m successfulwhen I can explain the relationship between force and motion. I am learning about different forces, so I can explain why objects move. Success Criteria: I’ll know I’m successful when I can give examples of forces acting on objects. *Consider having students walk around the school looking for push and pull forces.
