Physics formulas provide more interest than simple math equations thanks to an informative installment from the series on Newton's laws of motion. The formulas guide pupils' thinking about how varying a quantity affects the rest of the equation. Three levels of practice and immediate feedback make the interactive a great way to practice.

Instructional Ideas

• Rather than having pupils complete all three levels, just assign the third, Wizard, as it includes the questions from the previous two levels

Classroom Considerations

• Interactive works on all screen sizes thanks to an adjustable size file
• Relies on prior knowledge of directly proportional relationships, inversely proportional relationships, acceleration, net force, and mass

Pros

• Offers a Help Me feature detailing how to approach each problem
• Works well in traditional or flipped classes

Cons

• None
