This lesson plan outlines a 17-day unit on physics concepts related to vectors, motion, forces, energy, and momentum. Each class will focus on 1-3 sections of the textbook, include test questions to check understanding, example problems to work through, and homework assignments. Key topics to be covered include vector operations, one-dimensional motion, projectile motion, Newton's laws of motion, work, kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy, and energy conservation. The goal is to build students' conceptual understanding and ability to apply these fundamental physics principles.
