Knowledge and skills.


Reading/Beginning Reading Skills/Print Awareness.
Students understand how English is written and
printed. Students are expected to:
recognize that spoken words are represented in
written English by specific sequences of letters;
identify upper- and lower-case letters;
sequence the letters of the alphabet;
recognize the distinguishing features of a sentence
(e.g., capitalization of first word, ending
punctuation);
read texts by moving from top to bottom of the page
and tracking words from left to right with return
sweep; and
identify the information that different parts of a book
provide (e.g., title, author, illustrator, table of
contents
).

A rubber ball rebounds to half the height it


drops. If the ball is dropped from a rooftop
18 m above the ground, what is the total
distance traveled by the time it hits the
ground the third time?
a. 31.5 m
b. 40.5 m
c. 45 m
d. 63 m

Lets think about the problem.


The ball is thrown down from a building that
measures 18m. The distance down is 18m. The
rebound distance is half of that. So 18/2=9
18+9=27
27 m is the distance traveled for the first bounce.

First bounce = 27m


Second bounce would be 9m
down plus the rebound that
would be half of that. 9/2=4.5
9+4.5=13.5m is the second
bounce distance

For the final bounce the ball traveled


4.5 m down and thats when the ball
hits the ground for the third time.

So in summary bounce one = 27 m


Bounce 2= 13.5
Bounce 3= 4.5

To get our final answer we use


addition. We add all the distances
from bounce 1,2, and 3.

27+13.5+4.5=45
So the answer to our problem is c.45 m
