This set of instructional activities and teacher notes covers topics of kinematics and constant forces. The notes provide recommendations for implementing the activities. The topics include kinematics, graphing, and investigations using sonic motion sensors. Learning objectives, related standards, and guidance for teachers wishing to run inquiry-based and data-analysis laboratories are included, along with three different example lab procedures with different levels of student inquiry and data analysis. The teacher development notes can be used in either a workshop environment or for teacher self-study and reflection.

This is part of a collection of similar resources developed by the College-Ready Math-Science Partnership at the University of Arkansas.
