  1. Module 5: Sports A special partnership between theGeorgia Department of Education and theEducational Technology Training Centers in support of the 8th Grade Physical Science Frameworks.

  2. Georgia Performance Standards Framework for Physical Science – Grade 8 Unit: Sports Sternberg Task Bouncy Balls of Energy

  3. Standards Content S8P2. Students will be familiar with the forms and transformations of energy. a. Explain energy transformation in terms of the Law of Conservation of Energy. b. Explain the relationship between potential and kinetic energy. Characteristics S8CS1. Students will explore the importance of curiosity, honesty, openness, and skepticism in science and will exhibit these traits in their own efforts to understand how the world works. a. Understand the importance of—and keep—honest, clear, and accurate records in science. b. Understand that hypotheses can be valuable even if they turn out not to be completely accurate. S8CS2. Students will use standard safety practices for all classroom laboratory and field investigations. a. Follow correct procedures for use of scientific apparatus. b. Demonstrate appropriate techniques in all laboratory situations. c. Follow correct protocol for identifying and reporting safety problems and violations. S8CS3. Students will have the computation and estimation skills necessary for analyzing data and following scientific explanations. a. Analyze scientific data by using, interpreting, and comparing numbers in several equivalent forms, such as integers, fractions, decimals, and percents. d. Decide what degree of precision is adequate, and round off appropriately. c. (Gifted) Apply the metric system to scientific investigations that include metric to metric conversions (i.e. centimeters to meters). e. (Gifted) Address the relationship between accuracy and precision. S8CS6. Students will communicate scientific ideas and activities clearly. a. Write clear, step-by-step instructions for conducting scientific investigations, operating a piece of equipment, or following a procedure. b. Write for scientific purposes incorporating information from a circle, bar, or line graph, data tables, diagrams, and symbols. c. Organize scientific information in appropriate tables, charts, and graphs, and identify relationships they reveal. S8CS9. Students will understand the features of the process of scientific inquiry.  Students will apply the following to inquiry learning practices:   a. Investigations are conducted for different reasons, which include exploring new phenomena, confirming previous results, testing how well a theory predicts, and comparing different theories. Scientific investigations usually involve collecting evidence, reasoning, devising hypotheses, and formulating explanations to make sense of collected evidence. b. Scientific investigations usually involve collecting evidence, reasoning, devising hypotheses, and formulating explanations to make sense of collected evidence. c. Scientific experiments investigate the effect of one variable on another. All other variables are kept constant.

  4. Enduring Understandings: • Energy can exist in two forms: stored, called potential • energy, or when it is associated with motion, called kinetic • energy. • Energy is neither created nor destroyed, but it can be • transformed from one form to another. • Essential Question: • What is the role of energy in our in our daily life?

  5. Pre-Assessment • Apple in a tree • Cat waiting to pounce on its prey • An airplane sitting on the runway • A car at a stop sign • Blood flowing through the body • A car moving down the street • A baseball in a pitcher’s glove • A bug crawling along a sidewalk • A basketball on its way to the rim • A guitar string vibrating • A boxer with her arm drawn back • Water in a water fall

  8. “That's the Way the Ball Bounces”

  9. Teacher Reflection What were the “Big Concepts” in each activity? How will students make sense of these concepts? Discuss real-world examples that may reinforce students’ understanding. Homework, accommodations for students with disabilities, gifted students, ELL What other standards and elements might one introduce at this time to unify the concepts? What are some common student misconceptions and how can these activities facilitate the student’s proper conception and understanding?
