I haven’t made the Shedding Light on Curved Mirrors and Shedding Light on Lenses (and the Eye) worksheets into google docs as they are both very dependent on drawing light rays, so they are probably best suited to paper and pencil.

Drawing Graphs on a Spreadsheet.
Practice Graph (Google Sheet) (same as the one in the video)
Graphing Usain Bolt’s 2008 WR 100-metre Sprint (Google Sheet)
Graphing Usain Bolt’s 2008 (then) WR 100m Sprint Data (Google Doc)
In class, I showed my students the video and then gave them access to the Practice Graph Google Sheet. Once they did that, I gave them access to the Usain Bolt Google Sheet. They completed the tables and drew up a distance vs time graphs and a velocity vs time graph. I then asked them to copy and paste the two graphs into the Usain Bolt Google Doc and to answer the questions in that doc.
