Physci RipStik wave
Waves started with a four sheet set of poster pad paper pre-taped. But the El Niño influenced trade winds were having none that. Ripped the sheets apart between the first and second sheet.
Which always leads me back to "Mathematics class does not teach mathematics." The answer is not more math classes. Doing more of what is proven not to work isn't going make it work.
I was left with only three sheets. And once again I was do focused on holding a straight line that I missed shutting down the timer at sheet end.
I then proceeded with the usual coverage of wave concepts. Once I traced the shape, I asked what the shape might called and whether a mathematical equation could produce the shape. No one would answer. I asked each student by name. None knew, although some had taken MS 101 Algebra and Trigonometry.
