This unit will save you lots of time and energy and will keep your students engaged!

Included are two PowerPoint slideshows, two lab activities, follow-up pages, and an assessment.

Students will learn about potential energy and objects that are not in contact with each other. This unit looks at three types of potential energy: Gravitational, Magnetic. and Electromagnetic.

This unit addresses the MS PS3-1 standard Develop a model to describe that when the arrangement of objects interacting at a distance changes, different amounts of potential energy are stored in the system.

Students will learn about potential energy, make a model to explain their understanding, and they will ask questions and plan an investigation to explore how potential energy varies as the distance within the system changes.
