PROJECT DESCRIPTION
3 SUPERHEROES POSTER
Mrs. Patterson- 8th grade Science
OVERVIEW:
Many students have difficulty distinguishing between the concepts of speed, velocity, and acceleration. The goal of this project is to help better understand these three separate ideas by creating superheroes that are given special powers that exemplify each concept. Students will create a poster displaying their superheroes along with facts, figures, formulas that creatively display the relationships between speed, velocity and acceleration. Students can design the poster as an upcoming advertisement for a new movie or video game.
ESSENTIAL QUESTION
How can we visually exemplify the differences between speed, velocity, and acceleration?
STUDENT OBJECTIVES
• Understand the concept of speed
• Understand the concept of velocity
• Understand the concept of acceleration
• Compare and Contrast these three concepts artistically
1. Define: speed, velocity, and acceleration.
2. Explain the differences between speed, velocity, and acceleration.
3. Include a formula for velocity and speed
4. Decide what 'special powers' each superhero will have. The 'special power' should be related to the vocabulary word.
5. What other objects/pictures/graphs will be added to support your goals?
6. How will concepts be displayed? Dialogue boxes and/or bubbles, formulas, informative blurbs, witty commentary, etc
7. You may draw, paint, cut and paste, photoshop, photobooth, glue, markers, crayons, etc... be creative!
Finished product….
1. A visually and conceptually beautiful piece of work. A poster, in this case, that you are extremely proud of!
2. Clearly displayed concepts of speed, velocity, and acceleration
3. No spelling errors
4. Fantastic Superheroes that embody and embrace each concept
