Hello 7th graders! Last Friday, we reviewed our acceleration math sheets. This was split into two parts. The front was easier questions, while the back was harder questions, with conversions and finding velocity or time. One example of an "easy" question was "A three toed sloth is moving at a speed of 2m/min. It takes 30 min to increase its speed to 15m/min. What is the sloth's rate of acceleration." First you needed the formula, which was acceleration=final velocity-original velocity/time or a=sf-si/t. Next, the plug. a=15m/min-2m/min/30 min. The answer is 0.43 m/min. The "hard" questions on the back were similar, apart from the fact that you needed to convert or that you needed to find something apart from acceleration. Something that may help you is this triangle, similar to the one from before.
The next scribe is Noam.
Alix you forgot to put the next scribe!!!

ReplyDeleteAlix your paragraph is written very well. I think it is a good idea that you made the triangle because it is very helpfull. Another recommendation is that you could have spaced out the questions and you could have put the questions in different colors. If you wanted you could have put the answers in too. Overall I really liked what you wrote.
ReplyDeleteIf someone still has problems remembering main facts about speed and acceleration, check out this link. It is a teacher singing to his students about speed, rate and velocity. It is a good reminder before the QUIZ!!!!
I think it is very helpfull except for one word, pound(oops), otherwise it is helpfull (at least for me it was). Here it is; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCWshdk1LDU
I think you did a great job on your scribe post! Everything was well writen and the triangle was very helpful. There were a few minor mistakes such as forgetting to put in the next scribe. Also, I would recommend that you space things out so that it is more understandable. I liked that you gave an exmaple of a question on our math sheet. Overall, great job!
ReplyDeleteNice scribe post, Alix! The triangle was very helpfull, and as Iva said, you could have spaced the questions, but it still is great.
ReplyDeleteGood job on your scribe post! Hi, I'm a student from Sargent Park. You had a very well done scribe. Your paragraph was very well written and easy to understand. The triangle also helped. From this scribe, I learned how to find the rate of acceleration. Next time, you should use colours or spacings to show the question and the answer. But other than that, awesome post!
ReplyDeleteHere is a link to the scribe posts that I have done. I hope you can comment back:
