Illustrative Mathematics: 8.g Bird and Dog Race

Curated by ACT

In this race between a bird and a dog, 8th graders are provided with information about their starting locations on a map and their speeds. They are asked to predict a winner, draw the paths they might follow, decide how to determine who would win, explain how their times could be calculated, and state who will actually win. Aligns with 8.G.B.
