Try It Before You Buy It! NGSS Force and Motion - Sail Car (grades K &3)
That's right! Download a free copy of the sail car lesson for free. I decided that I wasn't making very much through TPT and would rather have teachers access and use my resources for free.
In this lesson, students build identical sail cars, then experiment with different variables for sails (i.e., sizes, shapes and materials) to determine which design is the most effective.
Reviews and suggestions for improvement are encouraged!
