  Week 2 and 3, Feb 13 - Feb 17

Goals:
1. Friction is a force that opposes motion due to interactions between surfaces.
2. The force due to friction can be measured by measuring the force required to drag an object at constant velocity
3. Be able to describe the effects of different surfaces and weights on the force due to friction.
4. Inertia is the tendency of an object to keep doing what it is already doing.
5. Be able to state and apply Newton's First law.

Activities
Monday- Notes and quiz from last week
Block day - Start Friction Experiment
Thursday - Finish posters of experiment results and start homework questions about reading. Sorry there is no electronic copy of this.
Friday - Notes about Friction and Newton's First Law.

Content of Notebook (The notebook will probably be combined with the follwoing week's notebook since the contents will be very small.)

1. Reading and Questions about Newton's First Law
2. Notes about Friction and Newton's First Law
