Measurement

Exploring the concept of speed. Students will realise that speed is made up of two measurements, one of distance travelled, and one of time taken. These two measurements can be used to calculate speed, which can be converted to different units.

L.I. Students will be able to 1. use appropriate scales, devices & metric units for length, area, volume & capacity, weight (mass), temperature, angle and time. 2. convert between metric units, using whole numbers and commonly used decimals. 3. use a range of multiplicative strategies when operating on whole numbers. S.C. We will (nzmaths.co.nz)
 * calculate speed from measured distance and time
 * solve multiplication problems using doubling and halving strategies
 * use know multiplication facts to solve multiplication problems

My estamate for running 1 km was 7 km per hour After Test I have discovered that I can run 14 km per hour

My estamate for running 100m was 10 km per hour

18 x 10 = 180 300 Seconds 60 dividet by 18 = 20 km per hour

60 Divitet by 18 = 5.6

I know now that I can work out what the speed a per son or anything by the time and length. I still need help with finding out the meters per second that object is traveling at over a corse. The f.I.O activity that it was hard to do because I just coundn't figure it out.

100m
