The Universe And More Graphing Game

Using the graph database, you can start rendering representations of the data and discovering some cool things about the Star Wars universe.

The Universe and More (Graphing Challenge)

Perhaps the most fun physics graphing game that is available. There are many levels here but they build dup well from the initial ideas of how shape represents motion through to gradients and areas. Almost impossible not to have fun and learn at the same time. Two small cautionary notes; the game uses 'clock reading' rather than 'time' and it uses displacement vs. time graphs rather than distance vs. time graphs. Neither get in the way of the learning and physics but some initial extra explanation may be needed.

Graphing Stories

This resource provides a collection of video clips that you can use to plot distance-time graphs. There are downloadable graph templates, but the simplest way to use this is to show the video and then let your students sketch the graphs. It’s just as easy to do this with mini whiteboards. The template has the time axis marked, but the y axis is left blank. Initially it may be worth helping students become familiar with the shapes without any numbers, but then you can use the resource more rigorously.

The utility tells you which specific drivers are out-of-date for all of your devices. Popular Samsung laptops include the Notebook 5/7/9 series. Download wireless drivers for samsung rv510.

This lesson resource requires students to think a little bit more carefully about how they interpret distance-time graphs. It is designed to reveal common misconceptions about distance–time graphs. Clear guidance is given on how to run the lesson including key questions you can use to probe students understanding. A matching exercise is used to match descriptions, graphs and tables. As they do this, they will interpret their meaning and begin to link the representations together.

Travel Graphs

Category:Mathematics

This interactive resource will give your students lots of examples from which to practice calculating gradients and areas to find speeds, accelerations and distance travelled using both distance/time and velocity/time graphs. The third tab on the spread-sheet introduces the trapezium rule to calculate the distance travelled for a velocity-time graph. Practise makes perfect.

Model the Motion

Category:Mathematics

This power-point based lesson activity compares the velocity-time graph to the distance-time graph for a few examples of motion. It will allow your students to establish a clear understanding of both types of graph so that they will be able to use both properly. This is a really good lesson.

Gradient of a distance-time graph

Use this revision note as a summary of distance-time graphs. Together with the notes below, you can use the website directly with your students or you could print off sheets for a hand-out of notes and test questions.

Gradient and area of a velocity-time graph

This revision note on velocity-time graphs has test questions too and goes on to give notes on finding the area under a velocity time graph to find the distance travelled. Use them with the pages above as a good summary to the topic.
