Looking back at the CVPM unit as a whole:
What worked:
- Spending most of our time on qualititative representations. Not only did the students (of all levels) spend less time stumbling over math, they also didn't use it as a crutch.
- The graph matching and Classroom Orienteering activities. Moving their bodies through the graphs and around the definitions of distance, displacement, speed, and velocity seemed to clarify the concepts for most of the students.
- Pacing. We've spent far too much time on CVPM,and only one class has tested on it. Next year, it has to go faster.
- Sequencing. Next year I want to do Classroom Orienteering earlier, and save the lab practical for later.
