12th Grade<br />

December found us distinguishing from Vector and Scalar<br />

quantities. Once the difference was clear, our ASD Seniors<br />

learned and practiced how to add vectors using graphic and<br />

algebraic methods. Twelfth graders understood that intangible<br />

things like force or velocity need graphical representation to better<br />

understand them and perform operations with them.<br />

Right after this came projectile motion, which we saw<br />

as a marriage between free-fall and horizontal constant velocity.<br />

The Angry Birds game was an immediate connection to it.<br />

In our future is relative motion. When you ride the<br />

cable car in “Cerro de los Remedios” have you ever wondered<br />

why the car that you are not riding seems to go faster than yours<br />

Ask the seniors for the answer.<br />
