1/30/13 and 1/31/13


Date: 1/30/2013 and 1/31/2013
Class: Physical Science
Periods: B2,3 and W1,3,4

Outcomes: Students will be able to explain how horizontal velocity effects acceleration due to gravity.

Standards:

Student Needs: 

Assessment Plan: Thumbs-up/down

Lesson Outline: Review basic definition of velocity and acceleration > discuss why things are weightless in orbit > grade test > Mythbusters dealing with dropping a bullet at the same time one is shot and when they hit the ground
Review: Review basic definition of velocity and acceleration

Anticipatory Set/Opening: Moving into energy of objects, Mythbusters, everything falls at the same acceleration

Key Points: gravity tries to accelerate everything down at the same rate of -9.8m/s2

Teaching Input: giving directions and asking questions

Modeling: diagrams on board

Checking for Understanding: ask students for answers and to repeat directions

Guided Practice/Monitoring: Mythbusters video

Closure: Thumbs-up/down on how you feel about force and acceleration

Independent Practice: Read Ch. 4 Sec. 1 pgs 100-105 Be able to describe how Kinetic Energy and Potential Energy are related.

Reflection:
