| Title | A Projectile Motion-Introduction (Inquiry Based) |
| Description | The students will use the simulation to learn the goals through an inquiry approach. Learning Goal: Students will be able to: Predict how varying initial conditions effect a projectile path, Use reasoning to explain the predictions, Explain projectile motion terms in their own words, and Describe why using the simulation is a good method for studying projectiles. |

Really like your lesson plan. I'm using it today but added a bit to play around with air resistance since most of my kids are vaguely familiar with it.
