Unit 5: Interpreting Distance-Time Graphs

Grade Level:
8
Subject:
Physical Science
Topic:
Analyzing and interpreting distance-time graphs.
Objective:
1.This lesson is intended to reinforce prior knowledge of a student's ability to interpret distance–time graphs by:
a. Applying their understanding of how distance–time graphs are pictures of situations rather than abstract representations of them with 70% accuracy.
b. Reinforcing how to relate speeds to slopes of distance-time graphs with 70% accuracy.
c. Engineering a ping pong ramp to represent the slope in a particular distance-time graph with 70% accuracy.
2. Students will practice using the engineering design process with 70% accuracy.
