Graphing and Sci Method practice today, Motion activity tomorrow

HMWK deadline extended to Monday!
Read p. 70-75.
p. 72#1&2
p. 75#1-7

Tomorrow's activity will be involving a moving object and how to describe it with a graph... and taking the information (slope) from the graph and making something useful to predict. 

Notes for Monday: Motion

If you are feeling lost on the algebra or conversion factors (many of you are - I know this is a tough thing to pick up), I will be using more and more of these in class next week.  I will keep it slow... you will pick up on it!
If you need another source to get a different perspective on using them, see me for a tutoring pass (have another student help you during Advisory on Tuesdays or Thursdays) or check out some stuff on the Internet about it.  
You will need to be either very solid on algebra skills and "dividing by a fraction"... etc OR be capable of using conversion factors to be successful in the upcoming units.
