We completed the following speed/graphing exercise:
Calculating Average Speed.xlsx
I had the students construct a foldable with the three kinds of speed: Average speed, Instantaneous speed, and Constant speed.
We then compared the slope of a line on a distance-time graph as a fast speed (large positive slope), a slow speed (small positive slope), or no speed (no slope - a straight line).
I asked the students to complete the questions (#1-6) on page 46 for a homework grade.
