OBJECTIVE: Graph linear functions by plotting points(11-4, Pp432ff)[5.1.1][5.1.2][1.5.3] ACTIVITIES: Studnrts are to make a paper airplane for their group. They will then conduct a number of trials to determine if there is a relationship between the height of the launch and the linear distance of the flight. Conduct several trials with different launchers. Plot the data. NOTES: HOMEWORK: Analyse the data - is there a relationship? What is it?
