In the Classroom
Bookmark this on your computer to use when planning lessons and units about gravity. Take advantage of these free lesson plans, for any unit in a physics class. Search the site to find the appropriate lesson tools, and bring them up on an interactive whiteboard or projector. A lot of the activities can be used for a class activity, or you could also break students up into cooperative learning groups and have them complete them seperately. Make sure to post this site on your teacher web page to allow students to access it both in and out of the classroom for review.
