Study guide for Motion, Forces, and Energy including conservation of energy and heat. Includes full answer key! Study guide is 6 pages, answer key is 9. Standards Covered: 1. Motion and Forces Central Concept: Newton’s laws of motion and gravitation describe and predict the motion of most objects. 1.1 Compare and contrast vector quantities (e.g., displacement, velocity, acceleration force, linear momentum) and scalar quantities (e.g., distance, speed, energy, mass, work). 1.2 Distinguish between displacement, distance, velocity, speed, and acceleration. Solve problems involving displacement, distance, velocity, speed, and constant acceleration. 1.3 Create and interpret graphs of 1-dimensional motion, such as position vs. time, distance vs. time, speed vs. time, velocity vs. time, and acceleration vs. time where acceleration is constant. 1.4 Interpret and apply Newton’s three laws of motion. 1.5 Use a free-body force diagram to show forces acting on a system consisting of a pair of interacting objects. For a diagram with only co-linear forces, determine the net force acting on a system and between the objects. 1.6 Distinguish qualitatively between static and kinetic friction, and describe their effects on the motion of objects. 1.7 Describe Newton’s law of universal gravitation in terms of the attraction between two objects, their masses, and the distance between them. 1.8 Describe conceptually the forces involved in circular motion. 2. Conservation of Energy and Momentum Central Concept: The laws of conservation of energy and momentum provide alternate approaches to predict and describe the movement of objects. 2.1 Interpret and provide examples that illustrate the law of conservation of energy. 2.2 Interpret and provide examples of how energy can be converted from gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy and vice versa. 2.3 Describe both qualitatively and quantitatively how work can be expressed as a change in mechanical energy. 2.4 Describe both qualitatively and quantitatively the concept of power as work done per unit time. 2.5 Provide and interpret examples showing that linear momentum is the product of mass and velocity, and is always conserved (law of conservation of momentum). Calculate the momentum of an object. 3. Heat and Heat Transfer Central Concept: Heat is energy that is transferred by the processes of convection, conduction, and radiation between objects or regions that are at different temperatures. 3.1 Explain how heat energy is transferred by convection, conduction, and radiation. 3.2 Explain how heat energy will move from a higher temperature to a lower temperature until equilibrium is reached. 3.3 Describe the relationship between average molecular kinetic energy and temperature. Recognize that energy is

PowerPoint and Guided notes for teaching about Macromolecules. Includes objectives and essential question. Graphic organizer foldable for interactive notebook including instructions for student completion and a sample completed organizer.

6 Fully Editable PowerPoint Templates that can be used to review any topic!! All 6 have the same basic design for continuity between units, but vary in number of categories (4, 5, and 6) so you can easily suit the number of questions to your specific topic and student audience. There are also 2 versions of each, one with the questions and answers on the same slide (answers appear with a click) and one where they are on separate slides. All slides are hyperlinked to the gameboard slide for easy transitions! Slides are labeled C1, C2 etc for each category and with point values to help you keep your place. Just type over placeholder text and you're good to go. Add pictures and change the background for further individualization. If you need any assistance, don't hesitate to contact me!

Project for High School Environmental Science (mixed level grades 9-12) to design their dream, Environmentally Friendly Home! This is a summative assessment that combines knowledge about resource use, waste management, and even some engineering design! Students really enjoyed designing their home, and were so excited to create their blueprints on the computer, which added such a professional touch!! In addition to project assignment sheet, there are individual worksheets to guide students in completing this project including: Home Location - Starter sheet to help them once they have chosen the location for their home to collect information about that location so they can show how their home will use local resources and how it will be different from the typical house in that local. Environmental Choices - Worksheet for students to gather their ideas on how their home will use resources more sustainably. Drawing Checklist - Worksheet to guide them in creating the blueprint for their home and drawing the external view of their property. Paper and Presentation Checklist - To guide students in writing their final paper and putting together their presentation. Includes some suggestions for more creative ways to complete the presentation requirement. Fully detailed rubric that I used to score the project. Gives great detail in why the grade was earned while significantly decreasing time spent grading. Total Pages 10 Video review of project: https://goo.gl/mx2Fdy
