Laws of motion Third grade students in Mrs. Starling's class recently completed a roller coaster project. Students were to design and create roller coasters that could be used to demonstrate Newton's three laws of motion, the effects of force on an object, and how energy transfers from one ojbect to another. The challenge was for students to design a roller coaster that included a high starting point, a twist, loop, or turn, and a safe stopping point. Upon completion, students had to place a marble on the coaster, and it must travel the length of the coaster twice without falling off. Students also gave an oral presenation that demonstrated their understanding of Newton's principles and how they could be demonstrated in the roller coasters. (Courtesy photo)
