Format For The Design of Activities

The document outlines two activities for students. Activity 1 involves measuring angles and distances using catapults to apply formulas of projectile motion. Working in teams, students will launch projectiles to collect data and use the formulas. Activity 2 focuses on optimization problems, where students will watch a video at home on solving such problems. In class, working in teams of three, they will analyze and solve assigned problems, then present their solutions to peers. Both activities aim to develop skills like critical thinking and cooperation through hands-on projects and group work.

Format for the design of activities

Initial stage: Activity, expressed in terms of what the student has to do:
Activity 1:
Objectives

The student will learn to measure angles and distances as well


as to apply the formulas of projectile motion.

Competenci
es to
Critical thinking, mathematical reasoning, teamwork and
develop
cooperation
Topics
Conic sections; parabolic trajectory; projectile motion
Each team should bring its catapult in order to measure the
Instructions release angle and the horizontal range of a projectile. With
these measurements, they will apply the projectile motion
formulas to find the velocity of the object and the time of flight
of the projectile.
