Science - Physical Sciences: 10 Lesson Plans + 1 Summative Assessment Task + FREE Student WORKBOOK (Year 7)

Unlock the Secrets of Motion and Cultivate Future Problem-Solvers!

Tired of endless lesson prep AND designing Physical Sciences units that truly engage? Our "Forces in Motion: From Tug-of-War to Rockets" unit delivers a complete, project-packed experience for Year 7. It provides ready-to-use, Australian Curriculum-aligned resources covering balanced and unbalanced forces, friction, gravity, Newton's Laws of Motion, and simple machines. This unit empowers you to guide students through the exciting process of discovering the physical laws that govern our world from the ground up.

Benefit from:

• Effortless Delivery: Clearly defined objectives and explicit teaching content make exploring complex concepts like inertia, acceleration, and action-reaction forces smooth and confident for both you and your students.
• Engaging Activities: From competitive tug-of-war experiments to friction races, balloon rockets, and designing simple machines, students will ignite their Critical and Creative Thinking and develop practical problem-solving skills through interactive, hands-on experiences.
• Natural Skill Development: This isn't just a physics unit. Embedded activities organically foster scientific reasoning (Literacy), data analysis (Numeracy and ICT Capability), collaboration (Personal and Social Capability), and evaluating evidence (Critical and Creative Thinking), aligning seamlessly with key General Capabilities.
• Extension Included: Thoughtfully designed extension prompts are included in every lesson, encouraging deeper exploration for advanced or curious learners.
• Real-Life Connections: Connect learning to real-world challenges in engineering, vehicle design, sports science, and space exploration. Empower students to innovate by exploring careers like Mechanical Engineers, Physicists, and Sports Scientists.

BONUS! FREE Student Workbook: This unit includes a ready-to-print student workbook, directly aligned with each lesson, saving you even more preparation time and providing valuable documentation and learning activities for your students.
