Students should be able to draw distance?time graphs from measurements and extract and interpret lines and slopes of distance?time graphs, translating information between graphical and numerical form. What axis does time go on for a distance-time graph?

Model a journey - kids walk a distance-time graph Drawing graphs from bits of prose
Students should be able to determine speed from a distance?time graph.

The average acceleration of an object can be calculated using the equation: acceleration = change in velocity time taken a = ? v t acceleration, a, in metres per second squared, m/s2 change in velocity, ?v, in metres per second, m/s time, t, in seconds, s What is the equation used to calculate the average acceleration of an object and what are the units involved?
(Physics only) Students should be able to draw and interpret velocity?time graphs for objects that reach terminal velocity
