    About this ebook

    Implement Newton’s First Law of Motion as a teaching principle with this book: students (bodies at rest) need many hands-on activities (impressed forces) to learn (compelling change)! This collection of Physical Science Action Labs will give your students plenty of experience with matter and motion. The labs include determining characteristics of matter, overcoming friction, making a pendulum, and more.
