Budapest Sub Plans

Thank you Ms. Ferrell for taking my place this week while I compete in the ITU Triathlon World Championships.

Here's how things should work, I am giving a list of work to be done in chronological order and the students should work through as much as possible. There is a benchmark on Friday that will take place in the computer room with Mrs. Hatchett. There is a paper and pencil portion of the test which should be given as a warm-up on Thursday. Each investigation has launch and summary videos which must be viewed. At some points, the videos ask you to stop them and let students work before you continue the video. Launch videos are seen before the investigation and summary videos come after all students have finished and students are given an opprutunity to present their work. Simple.

Investigation 3.2 (1 and 1/2 day)
Launch
I have already launched this investigation on Friday. In essence students are to make an equation, table, and equation for parts a to c. There are some additional questions that should be answered as well.

If everyone behaves and all work is done to a satisfactory level, they may play mummyball at your descretion and spareingly
