Friction Fred • Science Objectives: • Explain the meaning of friction. • Describe what happens with the absence of friction on a slick surface. • Use science process skills to compare friction among various surfaces.
Friction Fred • Literacy Objectives: • Recognize the letter “Ff” and the sound of /f/. • Write the letter “Ff”. • Identify location of the /f/ sound in a word. • Recognize words in print beginning with the letter “Ff”.
Friction Fred Kindergarten NS.1.K.1 NS.1.K.2 NS.1.K.3 PS.6.K.2 Demonstrate various ways that objects can move, including but not limited to: straight, zigzag, back and forth, round and round, fast and slow NOTE - Friction can be introduced during the study of this SLE by explaining that friction is needed for objects to go in a curved path on the ground, and causes objects to slow down if a force is not applied. PS.6.K.3 Demonstrate the effects of the force of gravity on objects. NOTE - Friction can be introduced during the study of this SLE by explaining that gravity is the downward force that is causing objects to press against the earth, etc.
Friction Fred • Grade 1 • NS.1.1.1 • NS.1.1.2 • NS.1.1.3 • PS.6.K.2 List orally the various ways that objects can move, including but not limited to straight, zigzag, back and forth, round and round, fast and slow • NOTE - Friction can be introduced during the study of this SLE by explaining that friction is needed for objects to go in a curved path on the ground, and causes objects to slow down if a force is not applied.
Friction Fred • Literacy Objectives for Higher Level Thinking: • Identify both regular and irregular words automatically through reading. • Create your own illustration for the Friction Fred story and write a paragraph to describe it. • Write a different ending to the Friction Fred story. • Write in a a science journal why it is betterto have rubber rather than leather soles on your shoes when walking on a slick surface.
Friction Fred Rolling Friction – Note that only one small part of the surface is in contact, therefore much less friction.
Friction Fred • Vocabulary Builders: • fascinated friction • fumble flannel • ferocious forfeit • fantastic favorite • frozen
Friction Fred • Science Words to Know: • resistancemotion • statickinetic
Friction Fred • Key science concepts: Discuss: • Friction – A force between two substances rubbing together. • Resistance: The force that opposes motion.
Friction Fred • Distance Contest Activity: • Make an inclined plane (ramp) between the table and book with a ruler. • Crumple some aluminum foil, flatten back out and lay at end of “ramp”. • Release the marble from the top of ramp. • Measure distance from bottom of ramp to where the marble stops. • Do this several time to get accurate results. • Repeat process with sandpaper and wax paper. • Why surface allows the marble to roll farthest? Why?
Friction Fred • Distance Contest Activity: • Conduct same as before, but allow the students to place their data in a table.
Friction Fred • Magic Spoon Activity: • Wipe off any oil on your nose with paper towel. • Breathe onto the spoon’s curved part. • Touch the curved part to your nose. • Slowly release. • What happened? Why?
Friction Fred • Grabbing Rice Activity: • Use funnel to fill small soda bottle with rice. • Insert pencil and start poking up and down. • Rice will settle and pencil will “grab”.
Friction Fred • Salt and Marble Activity: • Place marble in test tube. • Fill ¾ full with salt. • Place stopper/cork on top of tube. • Hold tube vertically and shake up and down. • What happens after 25-75 “shakes”? Why?
