Students are seeing the effects of when the pendulum is released from a higher standpoint or from a lower one. They're also seeing what happens as the object in front of the pendulum changes. They're creating models to show all these effects. Check back as they uncover the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces!
How can third graders show the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces? With some everyday materials, third graders are designing their own investigations with a simple pendulum as the source of their force.

Third graders have connected the science and engineering practice of modeling with a core idea of forces! Check out their awesome work, which showcases how difference forces can have different effects on a ball's motion!
