Week 6: March 5 - 9
Goals:
1. Be able to calculate average velocity from its definition, vel = change in deistance/change in time.
2. Be able to calculate average velocity from time vs. distance graphs.
3. On a distance vs. time graph, be able to describe how speeds change, based on the slopes of the graph.
4. Be able to interpret time vs. velocity graphs and match them with corresponding time vs. distance graphs.
Activities:
Monday: Race Gliders and calculate their average speeds
Block day: Work on making and understanding graphs of motion. Homework: Graph and answer questions about motion data. (Sorry this isn't currently available online.)
Thursday: Continue graphing activity.
Friday:Review and quiz
Notebook:
1. Newton's Laws Review Activity (from last week)
2. Glicer Results Data Table
3. Flo Jo reading, questions and data
4. Distance Graph
5. Velocity Graph ¶ 8:56 PM
