Resources

Potential and Kinetic Energy
Resource ID: S8M2L1 Grade Range: 6-8 By: ESC13 Content Subject: Science
Given descriptions, illustrations, or scenarios, students will compare and contrast potential and kinetic energy.
Energy Transformation
Resource ID: S8M2L2 Grade Range: 6-8 By: ESC13 Content Subject: Science
Given descriptions, illustrations, or scenarios, students will identify energy transformations, such as how energy in a flashlight battery changes from chemical energy to electric energy to light energy.
Speed, Velocity, and Acceleration
Resource ID: S8M2L3 Grade Range: 8 By: ESC13 Content Subject: Science
Given descriptions, illustrations, graphs, charts, or equations, students will differentiate between speed, velocity, and acceleration.
Average Speed
Resource ID: S8M2L4 Grade Range: 6-8 By: ESC13 Content Subject: Science
Given diagrams, data, or scenarios, students will calculate average speed using distance and time measurements.
Changes in Motion
Resource ID: S8M2L5 Grade Range: 6-8 By: ESC13 Content Subject: Science
Given diagrams or scenarios, students will measure and graph changes in motion.
Changes in Speed and Direction
Resource ID: S8M2L6 Grade Range: 6-8 By: ESC13 Content Subject: Science
Given descriptions, illustrations, graphs, charts, or equations, students will demonstrate and calculate how unbalanced forces change the speed or direction of an objects motion.
Work and Force
Resource ID: S8M2L7 Grade Range: 7-8 By: ESC13 Content Subject: Science
Given descriptions, illustrations, graphs, or charts, students will contrast situations where work is done with different amounts of force to situations where no work is done, such as moving a box with a ramp and without a ramp or standing still.
Newton’s Laws: Inertia
Resource ID: S8M2L8 Grade Range: 8 By: ESC13 Content Subject: Science
Given descriptions, illustrations, graphs, or charts, students will analyze and describe applications of Newton’s law of inertia, such as in vehicle restraints, sports activities, amusement park rides, Earth's tectonic activities, and rocket launches.
Newton’s Laws: Force and Acceleration
Resource ID: S8M2L9 Grade Range: 8 By: ESC13 Content Subject: Science
Given descriptions, illustrations, graphs, or charts, students will analyze and describe applications of Newton’s law of force and acceleration.
Newton’s Laws: Action and Reaction
Resource ID: S8M2L10 Grade Range: 8 By: ESC13 Content Subject: Science
Given descriptions, illustrations, graphs, or charts, students will analyze and describes applications of Newton’s law of action-reaction, such as in vehicle restraints, sports activities, amusement park rides, Earths tectonic activities, and rocket launches.
