Chapter Wrap-Up Now that you have read the chapter, think about what you have learned.
Use this checklist to help you study. Complete your Foldables® Chapter Project. Study your Science Notebook on this chapter. Study the definitions of vocabulary words. Reread the chapter, and review the charts, graphs, and illustrations. Review the Understanding Key Concepts at the end of each lesson. Look over the Chapter Review at the end of the chapter.
Reread the chapter Big Idea and the lesson Key Concepts. Draw a picture showing forces affecting objects in motion. Include at least six terms from the chapter as labels in your drawing, and explain the interaction of forces and motion.
