Well, I tried to get some learning in on our only day of school this week. We took a look at distance vs time graphs like the one below:
Don't pay attention to the numbers on the X and Y axis. The waves on the graph is what messed us up! It was great watching the wheels turn in their little heads trying to figure out what was happening regarding the movement of what was being graphed. I think most of them got it (on Wednesday) but I think we will be starting from square one on Monday. The most important thing to remember from this lesson: The lines on the graph DO NOT represent the hills that someone traveled on!
