Looking for fun ways to bring hands-on learning to your Science classes? This week’s Insights article - Science Class Takeover with VEX GO! - gives some ideas about how to teach force and motion standards with your GO Kits.
This article talks about ways to used the Inclined Plane build to engage students in explorations of force and motion to meet Next Generation Science Standards.
Some highlights from the article include:
- How the Inclined Plane STEM Lab in the Simple Machines Unit can be used to teach about balanced and unbalanced forces in an engaging, hands-on way
- A sequence of building activities to support all students’ building skills, so that building from build instructions goes smoothly
- Extensions to take your learning from the Lab even further
- A 5 Day sequence of lessons using the Inclined Plane to really bring your students’ learning around forces and motion to life - including a link to a Google doc of that plan!
Read the article to get some ideas and inspiration - and please share how you use VEX GO to bring Science concepts to life in your classroom!
