Week 6: Quiz
Stage 1: Discovery · Ages 5–8 · Physics & Aerodynamics
Week 6 — Physics in Every Shot
Let’s see what we learned this week! Ask your parent to read each question aloud and talk about the answers together.
For parent-teachers: correct answer shown in orange-brown. Use as a discussion guide, not a grading tool.
Question 1
What is trajectory?
- ○ The type of grass on the fairway
- ✓ The curved path a golf ball follows through the air
- ○ The speed of the club head at impact
Question 2
Name two physics concepts that affect how far a golf ball travels.
- ○ Color of the ball and the player’s height
- ✓ Kinetic energy, drag, spin, temperature, altitude — any two of these
- ○ The rules and the scorecard
Question 3
What is the most important thing physics teaches us about improving?
- ○ You need to understand every equation first
- ✓ Every shot is shaped by real forces — understanding them helps you predict, adjust, and improve
- ○ Golf is too complicated to understand
Parent-Teacher Note
Week 6 is celebration and synthesis. Your child has learned genuine physics — forces, energy, aerodynamics, spin, and atmospheric effects — all through golf. The goal is to help them feel like a scientist, not just a student. They have earned that.
