HP Cycle 2

🟢 6: M 9/14, 🔵 8: T 9/15 assessment & SEL

Today, we'll finish discussing assessments. In your breakouts, you'll answer this question:

• What does a fair assessment look like in a virtual setting?

Then, we'll talk about social emotional learning (SEL) and ✏️ answer the questions in Google Classroom. We'll share some ideas here. We'll play a game and talk about growth mindset.

If there's time today, we'll elect a class secretary; if not, we'll do it next time.

🟩 6: T 9/15, 🟦 8: W 9/16 vocab for motion

Today, we'll introduce Chapter 2 - Kinematics. Kinematics describes motion without referencing the cause of that motion. We'll start the unit by talking about some basic kinematics formulas and notation. We'll also distinguish between scalar and vector quantities.

Presentation: Intro to Kinematics

Homework: Review your notes from today's lecture, and make sure you understand the notation. In ➕ Positive Physics, please complete "constant velocity".

💚 6: Th 9/17, 💙 8: Th 9/17 representing motion graphically

Today, we'll take a look at representing motion graphically. We'll take data on the three trials below and add that data to a group spreadsheet on Google Classroom✏️. Analyze trials 1 and 2 first, but before formally taking data on trial 3, watch the video and PREDICT what you think the graph will look like qualitatively (without numbers). If your group feels confident in your predictions, you do not have to actually plot the data for trial 3, but discuss it first.

Homework: Finish taking data for at least trials 1 and 2 and make a prediction of what the graph will look like for trial 3. ❗ Period 6, we'll have our first mini-assessment next class.
