"Introduction to High School Physics" - Stations Lab - Distance Learning
This is a student-lead, stations science lab I developed teaching High School Physics. Once I got it developed, it save ME tons of prep time, so I am sure it will save YOU tons of prep time. The students are always psyched when they come into class and see the stations set up, and it ends up being a relaxing day for me as well. My classes were usually no larger than 15-20. Thus, if you have larger classes, you may need to double up on a couple of the stations to make sure everyone has someth
