Forces Warm Ups

Most of my warm ups are designed to be low floor, high ceiling: open ended enough so that anyone can access them, but have room for multiple interpretations and greater complexity.

Will it Slide?

Use friction data to predict whether objects will slide. Card Sort with calculations and graph labeling. See solutions here.
