Session 4 - Monday, 4 March*


Title: Distance-Time Graphs
Learning Objectives 
To be able to use a distance-time graph to describe a journey.
How do we know which object is moving the fastest? 

Resources 
We ask a number of people: "what is your faviourite colour", their answers are shown below.



Using this information can you quickly tell me the most popular colour?

How could we arrange this in a better way?


Top Gear 
Now we are going to have a closer look at the Top Gear - Race Across London.

 Watch the first part of the video and draw the graphs to match. 



Now use the table below to complete the graphs. 

Finally watch the remainder of the video and see if it is as expected. 

Can you describe this graph?
Can you describe what is happening in this graph?


Your own journey
Now draw a graph showing your journey from home to school and other locations during a normal day or a trip you have recently been on.
