In pairs, students are to imagine they are Isaac Newton and
are to address a board of physicists the laws of motion. You are to make a
storybook explaining Newton’s Laws of motion and explain the relationship
between force, mass and acceleration. Students are to do this after an
introduction into the topic over one period. Discussion revolving around how
Newton proposed these laws and how they impacted on contemporary scientific
theorem. By using Kerpoof students have a fun way of learning as well
reinforcing the theoretical side of this topic.
PFA – Outcome 5.1: A
student explains how social factors influence the development and acceptance of
scientific ideas
5.1 The history of
science
a) Identify some of the ideas from different cultures
(including those of Aboriginal and other Indigenous people that have
contributed throughout history
b) Describe some models and theories that have been
considered in science and then been modified or rejected as a result of
available evidence
Outcome 5.6: A
student applies models, theories and laws to situations involving energy, force
and motion.
5.6.2 Newton’s Laws –
motion:
a) Describe qualitatively the relationship between force,
mass and acceleration
b) Explain qualitatively the relationship between distance
speed and time
