Foam Dart Gun Projectile Motion Lab (TpT): Students love this lab because they get to "play" with toys while doing physics. This is a fun hands-on lab that only requires you to have one small foam dart gun per group, all other supplies you'll have on hand I'm sure (meter stick, protractor). I bought these Nerf guns at Wal-mart and they were 2 for $5. If you aren't the only teacher you can also share with another teacher.
Stomp Rocket Projectile Motion Lab (TpT): My favorite lab! Students build paper rockets and launch them outside! They can easily soar 50 m! This product contains instructions on how to build the launcher, build the rockets and the lab sheet. It will cost upfront a little to build the launchers but you can reuse them for years! I've posted here the supplies I used. I bought everything at Lowe's. |
