OpenSciEd High School addresses all high school NGSS standards. This comprehensive science curriculum empowers students to question, design, investigate, and solve the world around them.
This module builds on children's prior experiences with balls and how they move. Children focus on two themes: the properties and characteristics of balls and some of the factors that affect the way balls behave.
Children begin by comparing how a wide variety of balls roll and bounce; next they construct balls out of clay and many other materials; and then they explore the movement of different balls as the balls roll down ramps, through tubes, and around bends.
In this unit, students represent and analyze mathematical situations using algebraic symbols, they come to understand the basic notions of equality and equivalent expressions through informal problem-solving. They learn how variables are used to represent change in quantities and also to represent a specific unknown in an equation.
