AGENDA
WHOLE GROUP
Students completed the prior knowledge questions for the Gizmo Distance-Time.
We practiced reading motion graphs, including distance-tome and speed-time graphs.
We worked on the warm-up together. Students were then asked to apply what they learned by completing activities A-C of the Gizmo. Since most students did not complete the Gizmo, we will work on it next class period. Students will also take the assessment at the end of the Gizmo.
