DATE: the week of September 19, 2016

CLASS: STEM Physics

White Pine High School / Monday / Tuesday / Wednesday / Thursday
Date / 19th / 20th / 21st / 22nd
Bell Work / In your graphing notebook make two columns, one pt & the other vt graph. List the information you can get from each / In your graphing notebook, explain where the equation vf= vi + at
comes from an equation from the past. / p. 71: #30 / Review notes for quiz and make sure notecard is updated with all of the necessary formulas
Essential Outcome / PS 2.1 / PS 2.1 / PS 2.1 / PS 2.1
Objective(s) / Quiz over the information you can get from a vt & pt graph / Students will find position/distance of an accelerating object using graphs and equations / Students will contrast acceleration due to gravity (free fall) to the acceleration problems of this week / Quiz
Activity / Two Stage rocket interactive:
Students will work with a partner to answer quiz questions from this website:
http://www.physicsclassroom.com/Physics-Interactives/1-D-Kinematics/Two-Stage-Rocket/Two-Stage-Rocket-Interactive
*Quiz over vt & pt graphs / Partners will read the website for information down to checking for understanding:
http://www.physicsclassroom.com/class/1DKin/Lesson-6/Kinematic-Equations-and-Graphs
*Have students read p. 66 & 68 and write down formulas
??Can we use our formulas to solve the problem from the website?
GET STUDENTS to relate graph visual to average acceleration formula!!!!!!!
*Put chromebooks away
Partner Work: Solve questions on page 69: 26 – 29 / Finish p. 71: 31 – 33 all
Students will look at different representations for free fall. What information can you read from each of the graphs Website: http://www.compadre.org/Repository/document/ServeFile.cfm?ID=10001&DocID=1639
With a partner, students will access Physics Classroom about free fall, acceleration due to gravity, and graphs for these situations (students will access the first 4 sections of this website: http://www.physicsclassroom.com/class/1DKin/Lesson-5/Introduction In the 4th section have students figure out how gravity formulas relate to formulas earlier in the week. / Quiz over velocity and acceleration
Materials needed / Quiz, p. 65 / Chromebooks, p.69 / Chromebooks / Quiz
Homework / Read page 65 & do questions 18 – 21 all / Finish p. 69 if not completed in class / Explain how free fall equations relate to yesterday’s equations / Read about Newton’s 1st and 2nd Laws
