Science - Physical Science
Teacher asks students to:
- drop two objects of the same shape but different masses from the same height and observe what happens;
- create a comic book envisioning life on a low-gravity Earth;
- do a research project on Isaac Newton;
- think about how their weight, and maybe their muscle mass, would be different on a planet with different gravity;
- learn how astronauts adapt to low gravity;
- view archival footage of the NASA Moon missions.
