Please identify opportunities for differentiation. ||
 * Title: ||< Newton's Laws for TAKS review ||
 * Subject: ||< TAKS Prep ||
 * Grade: ||< 11 ||
 * Purpose: || To review material covered on TAKS in the area of physics ||
 * Time Frame: ||< One hour ||
 * Summary: ||< Students identify real life examples of Newton's Laws in every day life. ||
 * Tasks: ||< 1) Describe the main steps of the activity/lesson/project here
 * Be sure to include an opportunity for students to practice/employ a 21Ct or !gnite skill (see examples below)
 * [|general example]: this is an activity that asks students to look at pictures of real world examples of Newton's Laws in action and identify which law or laws it pertains to and why. It also allows for collaboration and students to self direct and reflect.
 * [|more specific example]: Students can be given a law and have to make a slide explaining the law and find at least one picture example to put in the class folder. The pictures will be used after all classes have contributed and students can then identify each picture on the wiki and tell what law or laws they think it belongs to and why. They will have to justify their answers if others post comments or remarks or rebuttals.
 * Around prom time students could come up with a student directed safety campaign based on Newton's Laws...ex: Click it or Ticket...followed by explanations using Newton's Laws. Students could put on cars in parking lot around prom time...or something else specific to the campaign they came up with. ||
 * Objectives: || * What content expectations or other objectives does this activity/lesson/project meet?
 * Please include at least one "Mash-Up" objective here, as well (student roles, Information Literacy, global empathy, higher-order thinking, etc.) ||
 * Assessment: ||< How will you assess the students learning?
 * Resources: ||< * What resources will be needed? ||
