Filling glasses: find the right graph

Learning Material  |  Interactive Lesson




Description
Look closely at some line graphs. Examine the relationship between the shape of a glass and the time taken to fill it with juice. Notice that the fluid level rises more quickly in a narrow glass than in a wide glass. Choose both sections of a line graph representing the filling rate for a composite-shaped glass. This learning object is one in a series of five objects.
Objective
1. Students create and interpret graphs that represent the relationship between quantities and show the rates of change.
2. Students match line graphs representing filling rates with different composite-shaped glasses.
