No matter what grade you teach, at some point you will surely need to introduce your students to the three Laws of Motion developed by Sir Isaac Newton in 1687. His Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica took Newton two years to write and was the culmination of more than 20 years of thinking.
That was more than 300 years ago. Today, we live in the YouTube era. Videos allow us to quickly summarize important scientific concepts like forces and motion in dramatic ways that your students will understand and remember. We’ve gathered some excellent examples here. Enjoy!
If you find a video on forces and motion that you’d like to share with us, please leave a comment!

You can’t talk about forces and motion without talking about Isaac Newton. His three Laws of Motion were published more than 300 years ago, and yet their basic concepts—inertia, acceleration, momentum, and mass—are still the standard for how we discuss forces and motion today. The laws may have been refined over the years (most famously by Einstein) but they still reign as incontrovertible scientific laws. We couldn’t send the Hubble Space Telescope into orbit without Newton.
