Forces comprehensive review lesson with differentiated tasks

This lesson resource introduces friction as a force that resists motion between two surfaces in contact. Students will explore the different types of friction (static, sliding, and rolling), understand factors that affect friction (like surface texture and force), and investigate how friction can be both helpful and harmful. The lesson includes hands-on experiments, interactive activities, and visual aids, making complex concepts easier to understand. By the end of the lesson, students will have a solid grasp of friction’s role in everyday life and its applications in engineering, transportation, and sports
