Algebraic Kinematic Equations Scaffolded Phenomena-Based Lesson: One Merge, Two Routes to 151 Meters Presentation | Physics | Grades 9–12
This is the student-facing slide presentation that introduces the phenomenon, walks the class through observations and driving questions, and frames the evidence students will use for the Scaffolded Phenomena-Based Lesson in the high school Physics (grades 9–12) chapter Algebraic Kinematic Equations, built around the phenomenon One Merge, Two Routes to 151 Meters. This scaffolded version adds sentence frames and extra supports for students who need them. It is sold separately from the other two parts of the set.
- What's inside: SCAFFOLDED Student Slide Show (editable .pptx + PDF, 11 slides).
- Resource type: Phenomena-Based Lesson – Presentation. Format: editable Microsoft PowerPoint file plus a ready-to-print PDF.
Classroom use: Open with the phenomenon slide show, let students record ideas on the response sheet, and lead the discussion with the teacher guide. Built for high school Physics, grades 9–12.
Sample question“2. The speeds climb by the same 4.5 m/s in each 1.80 s step. Why does that even climb matter before any equation is used on this run?”
Complete the set: Algebraic Kinematic Equations Scaffolded Phenomena-Based Lesson: One Merge, Two Routes to 151 Meters Teacher Discussion Guide; Algebraic Kinematic Equations Scaffolded Phenomena-Based Lesson: One Merge, Two Routes to 151 Meters Student Response Sheet. Original version: Algebraic Kinematic Equations Phenomena-Based Lesson: One Merge, Two Routes to 151 Meters Presentation.
Standards
HS-PS2-1 — Analyze data to support the claim that Newton’s second law of motion describes the mathematical relationship among the net force on a macroscopic object, its mass, and its acceleration.
