The lesson plan for Newton’s Laws of Motion: The Foundation of Classical Physics is designed to help parents and carers teach one of the most important topics in science. Newton’s laws explain how and why things move the way they do—everything from a flying football to a rocket launch. These laws are the building blocks of classical physics and are used in engineering, space science, transport, and sports.

This lesson plan gives you a clear structure for teaching the topic at home. It includes learning goals, discussion ideas, practical activities, creative writing, and open-ended thinking questions. Whether your child is new to the idea of force and motion or already enjoys science, this flexible plan supports different ages and learning styles.

It works as a single science session or as part of a longer unit on physics or space. With no specialist equipment needed and everything explained in everyday language, this plan is ideal for Elective Home Education families who want to explore science in a hands-on, meaningful way.
