Week 10: 8th Grade Science

Week 10

Topic:  Motion:  Describing and Measuring Acceleration

Students will be able to: 

Describe the motion of an object as it accelerates.
Calculate an objects acceleration.
Describe what graphs are used to analyze the motion of an accelerating object.

Essential Question:

What does a meter per second per second mean?

This week the kids will expand their knowledge of velocity by finding out that acceleration is the speed within a speed.  They will be conducting an experiment to calculate and graph acceleration and see how acceleration is the change of speed and/or direction.   

Key Terms:

acceleration

Differentiated Instruction:

inferring 
math integration
kinesthetic
