=**Welcome to our "2nd Trimester" Sixth Grade Science wiki!** =

=**Big Idea:** = ==** ** * Demonstrate and apply your knowledge of motion and forces. ** ** ==

**Concepts:**

 * Force and motion
 * Simple Machines

===****Learning Goals:**** ===
 * Demonstrate the concepts of gravitational force and how they relate to motion.
 * Demonstrate the relationship between the strength of a force and its effect on an object
 * Identify Newton's Laws of Motion and demonstrate how they affect their daily life.
 * Demonstrate a basic understanding of simple machines and how they relate to work.

===**Success Criteria for the Learning Goals:** ===
 * I can create a display and demonstration to teach 4th grade students about forces and motion.

===**Formative Assessment (FA) Strategies:** ===
 * KWL chart
 * Power Point over Newton's Laws
