  1. STAAR 8th Grade STAAR Formula Practice By Katherine Whitney

  2. STAAR Formulas • Work = Force X distance • Force = mass X acceleration • Density = mass/volume • Speed = distance/time

  3. Using the Work Program • The display gives the student the formula. • It then asks for the parts of the formula (force and distance). • When the student clicks the calculate button the information is then calculated and an answer is displayed.

  4. Display for Work Formula

  5. Using the Force Program • The display gives the student the formula. • It then asks for the parts of the formula (distance and time). • When the student clicks the calculate button the information is then calculated and an answer is displayed.

  6. Display for Force Formula

  7. Using the Density Program • The display gives the student the formula. • It then asks for the parts of the formula (mass and volume). • When the student clicks the calculate button the information is then calculated and an answer is displayed.

  8. Display for Density Formula

  9. BonusProgram • As a sample project I created a program for calculating the volume of an object. • The program gives the formula for volume and then asks for the parts of the formula; length, width, and height. • This will work with the density formula if you have to calculate the density of a regularly shaped object that has a definite length, width and height.

  11. Using the Speed Formula • The display gives the student the formula. • It then asks for the parts of the formula (distance and time). • When the student clicks the calculate button the information is then calculated and an answer is displayed.

  13. Suggestions for Use of Programs • Use to help students identify parts of formulas and what to insert in those parts. • Use as a review after teaching the formulas. • Use as a review before STAAR to reinforce concepts. • Use as a tool during tutoring sessions. • Use as an assignment for students who need calculators to do the work.
