2. When you bounce a ball, how high will it bounce?

3. Does data help? What will happen if the ball is dropped from 50 cm? 200 cm? What will happen if the ball is dropped from 50 cm? 200 cm?

4. What is half of 52? I know half of 50 is 25 and half of 2 is 1. So, half of 52 is 25 + 1 = 26. Half of 40 is 20 and half of 12 is 6. So, half of 52 is 26.
