Item description

Most students will know how to find how fast an object is moving simply with a meter-stick and a stopwatch. But how about finding the speed of different objects without any technology, using only their bodies?


This fun, creative lab replaces a stopwatch with a human pulse. Students will use other features of the human body to calculate speed and velocity, making the traditional materials of an everyday physics lab obsolete. 

Students will discover for themselves how to find the speed of a toy car or a marble rolling on the floor and will be able to quantify their results in meters per second and miles per hour.

This is an NGSS-aligned lesson. Your students will engage in the three-dimensional learning by analyzing and interpreting data, discussing with other students, and forming their own unique experiments.
