The Physics of Roller coasters
Rating
0.0 stars

In this project, students will design and construct a roller coaster. The materials used in this activity can be found materials (pipe insulation, paper tube, wood dowels, etc. for little or no cost.
For a small fee, Paper Templates for a Paper Roller Coaster can be purchased from paperrollercoasters.com. This kit includes one set of detailed directions with over ninety color photographs, and eleven templates suitable for photocopying. Each set of paper templates may be used for one home or classroom only. You supply card stock, marbles, tape, and a piece of cardboard.
Once constructed the coasters are constructed, students will analyze the physics of motion of a roller coaster car and its occupants in terms of concepts such as speed, acceleration, Newton’s Laws, net forces, normal forces, friction forces, and energy (KE, PE, TME); this description should be both mathematical and conceptual.

This task shows three equivalent expressions and requires that students understand the structure and purpose of each one. This is a critical aspect of Seeing Structure in Expressions. 
The primary purpose of this task is to assess students' knowledge of certain aspects of the mathematics described in the High School domain A-SSE: Seeing Structure in Expressions. Specifically, standard A-SSE.3 reads A-SSE.3: Choose and produce an equivalent form of an expression to reveal and explain properties of the quantity represented by the expression. a. Factor a quadratic expression to reveal the zeros of the function it defines. b. Complete the square in a quadratic expression to reveal the maximum or minimum value of the function it defines.
The Standards avoid the term "simplify" as there isn't always an obvious simplest form. The emphasis instead is on, "purposeful transformation of expressions into equivalent forms that are suitable for the purpose at hand." This task shows three equivalent expressions and requires that students understand the structure and purpose of each one. This is a critical aspect of Seeing Structure in Expressions. 
Mathematically this task:
• Prompts students to analyze three equivalent quadratic expressions • Allows students to focus on the structure of the expressions without focusing on the procedural skill of factoring or expanding the expressions • Gives a real-world context for students to interpret the properties of quadratic expressions • Requires students to look for and make use of structure (MP.7)
In the classroom: • Offers students and teachers an opportunity to see an assessment-type task with two response types • Allows teachers to target specific student misunderstandings for reteaching • With follow-up questions, teachers can prompt students to share their thinking about the concepts in this task

Representing Quadratic Functions Graphically
Only Sharing Permitted
CC BY-NC-ND
Rating
0.0 stars

Mathematical goals
This lesson unit is intended to help you assess how well students are able to understand what the different algebraic forms of a quadratic function reveal about the properties of its graphical representation. In particular, the lesson will help you identify and help students who have the following difficulties:
Understanding how the factored form of the function can identify a graph's roots.Understanding how the completed square form of the function can identify a graph's maximum or minimum point.Understanding how the standard form of the function can identify a graph's intercept.

Before the lesson, students work individually on an assessment task that is designed to reveal their current understandings and difficulties. You then review their work and create questions for students to answer in order to improve their solutions.After a whole-class interactive introduction, students work in pairs on a collaborative discussion task in which they match quadratic graphs to their algebraic representation. As they do this, they begin to link different algebraic forms of a quadratic function to particular properties of its graph.At the end of the lesson there is a whole-class discussion.In a follow-up lesson students attempt to improve their original response to the assessment task.
Materials required
Each individual student will need two copies of the Quadratic Functions assessment task and a mini-whiteboard, pen, and eraser.Each pair of students will need Domino Cards 1 and Domino Cards 2, cut into ten ‘dominoes'.
Time needed
15 minutes before the lesson, a 95-minute lesson (or two shorter lessons), and 10 minutes in a follow-up lesson. Timings are approximate and will depend on the needs of the class.

Summative Assessment for Ecology Unit
Essential Outcomes:
1. Describe the concept of adaptation through the process of Natural Selection
2. How do adaptations enhance the survival of a particular species?
3. What is the carrying capacity of an ecosystem and what factors limit the size of a population?
4. How do short-term changes in the biotic/abiotic factors of an ecosystem influence population of a particular species? What happens if the species cannot adapt to these short-term. changes?

"I'd like to suggest the educational technology resource: SpinnerWheel.com

Spinner Wheel is a free online tool that allows for a flexible and engaging approach to learning. It has many use-cases for any subject.

All entries on wheels are fully editable and one of the main things that makes it so useful is the ability to create multiple wheels for use at one time.

An example use of Spinner Wheel for mathematics: https://spinnerwheel.com/mental-mathematics-quiz
and for creative writing: https://spinnerwheel.com/short-burst-writing-ideas-generator

From creating multiple random number generators to equitably selecting students from a group, the possibilities for using this resource in a learning environment are practically endless."
