Frames of Reference and Relativity - SENIOR PHYSICS - This physics lesson package discusses and compares Classical physics with Modern physics. It teaches Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity as well as Time Dilation and Length Contraction. The lesson includes many applications and real-life scenarios. It is geared toward students who are taking high school physics - senior years.

This physics lesson package includes the lesson (student and teacher versions of the presentation), an auto-graded Exit Ticket, THREE embedded videos, and a student lesson handout as a document. The presentation is fun and applicable with many opportunities for inquiry-based learning and discussion.

In order, the lesson covers:

• Newtonian Physics
• Problems with Classical Physics
• Modern Physics & Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity
• Michelson and Morley
• Postulates of Special Relativity

Google and Distance Learning Ready

• This lesson includes both Office and Google formats for ALL resources. The presentation is in PowerPoint and Google Slides while all documents contain Word and Google Doc versions.
• Your resource is perfect for distance learning and integrates seamlessly with Google Classroom as I've included a link that will automatically create a copy of the resources and put them directly into your Google Drive with one click.
• Purchase --> Open --> Click --> Assign to your students

Having both options allows you to use either without worrying about formatting issues as all the work has already been done for you. It safeguards you in case your department or school decides to go Google 100% and allows you as well as your students to access everything no matter where you are or what kind of equipment is being used.
