The Physics of Angry Birds Assessment

Students are to create a poster which shows the flights of several angry birds. They must show that they can calculate speed, distance, time, acceleration and momentum, as well as create a time-distance graph and use this to calculate speed. The format for this assessment is an A3 poster. Students will have a total of 100 minutes of class time to work on this task, then the rest must be done at home. It is due Monday the 19th of September

Desciption
	Not attempted/included 0 pts	Poor 1 pts	Fair 2 pts	Good 3 pts
Evidence of calculations	Not attempted/included Has not included any calculations on poster.	Poor Has included some but not all calculations. Not all calculations are correct.	Fair Has included calculations for speed, acceleration, momentum and velocity of an angry bird. Not all calculations are correct.	Good Has demonstrated the ability to correctly calculate speed, acceleration, momentum and velocity of an angry bird
Distance - Time Graphs	Not attempted/included No distance - time graph included .	Poor Distance - Time graph attempted but not correctly plotted or labelled.	Fair Distance - Time graph included in correct format but not used or used incorrectly to show how to calculate speed.	Good Distance - Time graph included in correct format and used to correctly calculate speed.
Description of momentum	Not attempted/included No description of how momentum changes between different angry birds	Poor Brief description of what momentum is, no comparison between the sizes of the angry birds with no calculations included.	Fair Description of how momentum changes as a result of weight. No formula or example calculation included.	Good Description of how momentum changes with formula and example calculation to show how size impacts momentum.
Flight of angry birds	Not attempted/included No images of angry bird flight paths.	Poor One angry bird flight paths included, no reference to calculations	Fair Several angry bird flight paths included. Uses unreasonable estimations for calculations.	Good Several angry bird flight paths included. Images make reference to calculations including reasonable estimations for calculations.
Speed - Time Graph	Not attempted/included No speed - time graph included.	Poor Speed - time graph included. Makes no reference to angry bird flight path. No calculations included.	Fair Speed - time graph included which shows angry bird flight path and calculations of acceleration. Parts of graph or calculations are incorrect.	Good Speed - time graph included which correctly show angry bird flight path. Correctly calculated acceleration from this.
Presentation	Not attempted/included No effort has gone into presentation of poster. Multiple spelling and grammar errors.	Poor	Fair	Good Immense effort has gone into the presentation of this poster. It is neat and aesthetically appealing. No spelling or grammatical errors. Is clearly labelled. Includes the owners name.
