SOS: Save Our Ski Slopes
Students defend downhill skiing as an Olympic Games event by creating a presentation that graphically proves the economic impact and popularity of this event.
Curated OER
Slopes, Hopes, & Speed
Students investigate the sport of skiing through Internet research in this multi-task lesson. They compare and generalize the results of five individuals by using mean, median, and mode.
Curated OER
Skiers on the Slope
Students explore mathematical concepts, problem solving, and the ability to program in LOGO to test ideas about speed, acceleration, gravity, and slope when dealing with downhill skiing.
Curated OER
Speed Is the Key
Students design and build a model downhill ski course that proves to be the fastest course at the Finish Line. They apply what they explore angles, slope, speed, and surface conditions to find the fastest course in the US.
