TRANSCRIPT
As Mrs. Covert is taking role answer the five questions on
the worksheet.
You only have 5 minutes.
This needs to be done individually.NO TALKING!!!!
Take Tables Quiz
No talking this is an individual process.
First, any questions on tables practice.
Physics
Story Telling Graphs
Friday, August 22
By the end of the day…
• I will be able to describe the events of a graph.
• I will be able to watch a movie and depict it in a graph.
• I will be able to turn a story into a graph.
• I will be able to turn a graph into a story.
Phase I
Lets Learn about Graphs
Cyber Chase for Real Video Clip
“Harry the Hoser”
Understanding graphs requires
DETECTIVE SKILLS
Detective Tools
1. Know what you are working with. *Look and know the labels on the side *x-axis is the known value, who know what is happening *y-axis is the unknown or measured value
Try it out
time (s)
H
e
i
g
h
t (m)
As time passes (x-axis) we will be looking to see what happens
to the height (y-axis).
Time is on the x-axis because it is
known
Height is on the y-axis because it is changing and is unknown what
it will do. We are measuring it.
Detective Tools
1. Know what you are working with. *Look and know the labels on the side *x-axis is the known value, who know what is happening *y-axis is the unknown or measured value
2. Know how to read what it is telling you. *Know what those lines mean
Constant – Not Changing
Increasing – at a constant rate
Increasing – faster and faster
Increasing – slower and slower
Decreasing – at a constant rate
Decreasing – faster and faster
Decreasing – slower and slower
Does steepness matter?
The steeper the line the faster the
change!!
The blue line is increasing faster than the purple line.

3. Put the story together
Try it out
(1)It stays at the same height.
(2)Then decreases to a lower height and (3)stays
there for awhile.
(4)Finally, it increases height until it passes it
original height.

Try it out II
(1)Speed increases than decreases to zero.
(2)Then increases and decreases again, but not
as fast again.
(3)Pattern continues to, but a slower maximum
speed is reached.
(4)Pattern still continues.time (s)

Phase II
Matching Movies to Graphs
Found on Mrs. Covert’s Website
Creating Graphs Hints
• Remember how do you show– Increase– Decrease– Constant
• As you watch the clip pay attention for these things.
• Watch for a starting location.• Draw lightly to make changes.
Phase III
Watching Movies to Creating Graphs
On Mrs. Covert’s Webpage
How am I doing on the daily goals…
• I will be able to describe the events of a graph.
• I will be able to watch a movie and depict it in a graph.
• I will be able to turn a story to graph.
• I will be able to turn a graph into a story.
Assignment
• Complete the back page of the beginning worksheet.
• Make sure to indicate if your first answer was right or wrong.
• Explain what is wrong about each of the incorrect graphs.
