Motion Problems
For this motion worksheet, students complete motion word problems where they explain and define issues having to do with motion. Students complete 32 problems.
Balanced Assessment
On Averages and Curves
Determine the average on a curve. The class finds graphical representations of averages and expresses them both symbolically and on the graph. The assessment requires class members to justify using average to describe graphs.
