“We must open the doors to opportunity. But we must also equip our

people to walk through those doors.”

…Lyndon B. Johnson

Effective integration of technology is achieved when students are able to select technology tools to help them

obtain information in a timely manner, analyze and synthesize the

information, and present it professionally. The technology

should become an integral part of how the classroom functions -- as accessible as all other classroom

tools.

In this unit, various investigations require accurate measuring using a variety of tools and units of measure. Measuring and comparing are two skills that are required and practiced throughout the science units and across the curriculum.

GLE 27. Describe how the amount of force needed to cause an object to change its motion depends on the mass of the object (PS-E-B4)

Interactive Web-sites can be used to extend the understanding of force. Combine the Web-sites with charts to record data.

time• Have a plan B• Plan to teach and teach with a plan

– Teach your students all skills required to complete the activity in advance.
