What if you could measure the acceleration or velocity of a moving ball in PE? It’s possible with a tool called a PocketLab.
I led a series of lessons that incorporated a PocketLab, a couple of Nerf balls, and an iPad. Students threw and kicked the balls, and I graphed the results on my iPad so that the abstract concepts like acceleration could be better understood.
