Motion Graphs

MOTION GRAPHS
November 22, 2007 (Thursday)

We played with Ms. Kozoriz's graphs on her SmartBoard with her sensor. We learned how position-time graphs and velocity-time graphs worked, and how to read and obtain data from them. We forced our classmates to move away and closer to the sensor while the sensor records the data on graphs on the SmartBoard. Fun class.
