QR Challenge: Force

Created using the ClassTools QR Treasure Hunt Generator

Teacher Notes

A. Prior to the lesson:

1. Arrange students into groups. Each group needs at least ONE person who has a mobile device.

2. If their phone camera doesn't automatically detect and decode QR codes, ask students to

3. Print out the QR codes.

4. Cut them out and place them around your class / school.


B. The lesson:

1. Give each group a clipboard and a piece of paper so they can write down the decoded questions and their answers to them.

2. Explain to the students that the codes are hidden around the school. Each team will get ONE point for each question they correctly decode and copy down onto their sheet, and a further TWO points if they can then provide the correct answer and write this down underneath the question.

3. Away they go! The winner is the first team to return with the most correct answers in the time available. This could be within a lesson, or during a lunchbreak, or even over several days!

30. proportionalCorresponding in size or amount to something else
31. thermal energyType of energy that is generated and measured by any kind of heat
32. unbalanced forceThe force of one object onto another, resulting in the first object’s motion
33. velocityThe speed of something in a given direction
34. wheel and axleA simple machine that consists of two attached circular or cylindrical objects that rotate about a common axis, each one with a different radius
35. workForce exerted on an object that causes it to move
