Newton's 1st Law: Interactive HTML + PPT

Newton's Laws - complete lessons

**Bundle of three complete lessons on Newton's Laws of Motion.** Alongside each lesson's powerpoint there is an interactive, standalone HTML resource, designed for whole-class interactive whiteboard demonstrations, individual student practice (iPads, laptops, chromebooks), or low-prep cover work. Zero setup required: simply double-click the file to run directly in any web browser without an internet connection or software installation. The html files are the star resources. They contain teaching blocks, simulations, multiple choice questions and games to give a more intuitive grasp of the physics as students see how forces and motion play out in various scenarios. Use in normal lessons, or keep up your sleeve to set when you need cover work. *Want to see the free body diagram of forces on a trampoling elephant? You've got it. And the Newton's Third Law Force pairs diagrams. And the ability to freeze frame the action. Want to see how a rocket will drift forever through space until a force acts on it. You can do that, and attempt to dock the rocket at a space station. Want to play with unbalanced forces on a submarine, or calculate whether a tram will accelerate quicker than a tank, a motorbike quicker than a race car, then watch them race head to head to see if your calculations were correct? What about watching how resistive forces bring objects to a halt, whether it is a car on a road or a curling stone that you are trying to land on a target? All these are included and more besides, along with many quiz style questions.* The idea is to give everyone a robust grasp of how the fundamental laws of physics apply in many settings. While you can't be everywhere in the lab at once to give individual guidance, students can self-guide through different levels of the html page. To open an html file, simply double click. It will open in a browser, just as double clicking a .xls would open in excel or a .ppt would open in powerpoint.
