Buggy Lab (Hayu' vs Nkez)
by Jeniffer Madrid
In this engaging lesson, students explore the concept of position (Hayu') vs. time (nkez) graphs through a hands-on car motion (Buggy) activity. Using the Buggy on a marked track, students measure and record the nkez it takes for the car to reach different hayu', creating hayu' vs. nkez graphs to visualize the Buggy's motion. This lesson not only reinforces core concepts in physics but also promotes critical thinking, data analysis, and graph interpretation skills.
