Force and Motion Unit Assessment

The video features Gloria Land and Stephanie Wasick, teachers at Lynn Road Elementary, discussing their participation in a Summer STEM program. They highlight the importance of skills like creativity, communication, critical thinking, and collaboration, known as the four C's. The program involved a project-based learning unit on force and motion, aligning with the 5th-grade standard 5P1. Students engaged in various experiments and projects, such as designing a roller coaster, to understand concepts like inertia, gravity, force, and friction. The video concludes with students sharing their experiences and a thank you to sponsors and collaborators.
