Grades 5-8 Performance Task
Contributed by: Kentucky Department of Education
(KDE)
Students test the force necessary to start each
of two blocks in motion on an asphalt strip. They
repeat their tests with weight on the blocks,
and with three different asphalt strips: one dry,
one wet, and one oily. Individually, they graph
the group's data, and apply the data to several
different applications.
