What quantities did you measure for calculating speed and velocity?
How did you combine these quantities to determine how fast each participant was walking?
How did you use the result to determine who walked fastest?
What is instantaneous velocity?
How do you think speed and velocity is related to this phenomenon?
What other life experiences can you share wherein speed and velocity is applied?

Which of them involve uniform acceleration with an increasing velocity for the entire time? Describe the motion of the other sets.
In this activity, identify bodies or objects that exhibit uniformly accelerated motion. Write UAM if it exhibits Uniformly Accelerated Motion, write Non-UAM if it DOES NOT.
What does the terms under the position-time, velocity-time and acceleration-time graph represents?
How have you been teaching the concepts of uniform circular motion? Please, take a moment and share your experience to the whole class.
What were the common misconceptions held by your students in relation to this topic?
What is uniform circular motion? Give examples of it.

What force causes the pencil rubber to move in a circle?
What force causes the pencil rubber to move in a circle?
How do the magnitude and direction of this force vary during the circular motion?
What is the relationship between the direction of motion of the rubber and the direction of the force acting on it?
Is there a net force acting on an object in uniform circular motion?

What new things have you learnt from this session?
Do you have any other strategy that you suggest for teaching this topic? If so, please share it to your colleagues.
How have you been teaching the concepts of projectile motion? Please, take a moment and share your experience to the whole class.
