  • FOCUS / ARONGA

    FOCUS / ARONGA learning intentions:

    • We are FOCUSING...on defining forces so we can explain how they can be beneficial in the design of transportation
    • We are FOCUSING... on describing which forces apply to specific forms of transportation so that we can explain how they move and/or explain how to speed up/slow down

    Context: Cultural Transportation

    Links to the Holistic Report: 

    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • Explain how machines and technology have helped transportation throughout history

    Keywords: Net force, balanced forces

    Activities:

    1. Application of forces to transportation: create a visual that explains forces involved in a form of transportation
    2. Hands-on activity: measure the teeth on bike gears, compare their sizes + link this information to PE (which gears are used for going up/down hills to explain why)
    3. BrainPop: forces, balanced forces
