1. Curriculum Mapping Project Physics Sanjar Hekmati

2. Why did I choose this project? I am going to teach physics again in the spring semester and I need to have one Ensures that I will be better prepared It allows me to address and learn more about the standards Incorporate 21 st century learning and technology (web 2.0 tools) Allows me to reflect back to make it better for next year

3. Grade Level and Student Requirement(s) 10 th -12 th Able to use a computer and have access Passed Algebra I, better if student have taken and passed Algebra 2 Must have an email address Prior knowledge of scientific method Familiar with TI-83

4. Main Instructional Objectives State what projectile motion is For a projectile, describe the changes in the horizontal and vertical components of its velocity, when air resistance is negligible State Newton’s first law of motion State the relationship between acceleration and net force State the relationship between acceleration and mass State and explain Newton’s second law of motion Describe the effect of air resistance on a falling object State Newton’s third law of motion Given an action force, identify the reaction force Use web2.0 tools to make videos, diagrams, wordle’s, and so on. Apply the concepts into real world situations

5. Activities Take students outside and record walking time with the wind and against the wind to show the effects of air resistance Visit Mr. Hekmati’s WebQuest on projectile motion Construct a free-body diagram using “popplet” Lab using acceleration timers Use the CBR to detect different velocities Have a tug of war between boys and girls. Have the boys remove their shoes to demonstrate that the reaction force of the floor is what determines who wins the tug of war Use animoto to make a video on action and reaction Create a “Frayer Model” on key concepts and vocabulary

6. Assessment(s) Hands on Lab using different ball sizes for projectile motion Daily warm ups pertaining to the days lesson Informal observations of students Create videos with slides and texts using Animoto.com that shows a step by step of solving a projectile problem Create a free-body diagram using popplet Vocabulary quiz Hands on activities involving action and reaction Construct a “Wordle” using key vocabulary words Summative Assessement-Chapter tests
