Weight Drop Launch
Students will investigate how a weight drop launch style of roller coaster works using a //code.Node Cart. Additionally, they will create a Blockly...
Speed and Velocity
Students will investigate speed and velocity using the //code.Node Cart. Using the data they collect, they will create a two Blockly challenge...
Crash Test: Velocity and Inertia
Students will explore Newton's laws of motion using the //code.Node Cart to measure velocity and observing what occurs when it comes to a sudden...
Wheels: Diameter and Distance
Students will calculate the circumference of the //code.Node Cart wheels in order to solve problems as well as create two Blockly coding programs.
Blockly Extension: Evidence of Chemical Reactions
In this activity, students develop a Blockly program that determines whether a chemical change is occurring using temperature readings.
Weather and Climate: Microclimates
Students observe that air temperature and humidity are affected by the type of structures and organic material around them.
Monitoring Weather
Students investigate weather throughout the course of the day and look for patterns and relationships using their collected data.
Determining Sound Levels
Students learn that sound is produced by vibrating objects, that sound travels from a source through air, solids, and liquids, and its loudness...
MatchGraph!
Students experience and describe motion through competing against the clock and completing various exercises using the MatchGraph app and a motion...
How a Greenhouse Works: Heat
Students investigate how heat inside a model greenhouse if affected by changes to the covering materials on the box.
