Goals:
1. Be able to calculate average velocity from its definition, vel = change in distance/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.

Activities:
Monday: Work on gliders
Tuesday: 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.)
Friday:Continue graphing activity. Review and quiz

Notebook:
1. Glicer Results Data Table
3. Flo Jo reading, questions and data table
4. Distance Graph
5. Velocity Graph
