Give your physics students a focused look at gravity myths and misconceptions with ninety questions built for real classroom use, whether you are starting a new unit or reviewing before a test.
Students will answer questions such as "What does 'microgravity' refer to?", "Why do astronauts float in the International Space Station?", and "Which statement about gravity in space is incorrect?"
All three worksheets cover the same topic in different question styles. That means you can use one as a pretest, another for practice or homework, and the third as a follow up quiz, without students ever seeing the same question twice.
This set is part of a NGSS aligned physics unit. The unit also covers Gravity Basics, Earth and Moon Gravity, Modeling Orbits, Mass and Distance Effects, Weight and Mass, and Free Fall and Air Resistance, all in the same three worksheet format, so your classroom routine stays familiar while the topic changes.
Suitable for Grade 6-8 physics classes, and for review at any point in the school year. This set is aligned to NGSS standard MS-PS2-4.
