Description
This free virtual lab activity from GigaPhysics.com helps students explore the differences between position vs. time and velocity vs. time graphs. Students learn how these graphs work by dragging a virtual caterpillar with their mouse, then comparing the graph of the caterpillar's motion to the target graph they were aiming for. Through this exploration students learn the major features of both types of graphs, and debriefing questions along the way reinforce what they discover.

This assignment was great for my physical science class, my students really enjoyed it!
Worked well for my 9th grade physical science class.
Great assignment. It really helped my students with motion graphs
Useful.
Really excellent! The worksheets that go along with the simulations are well done.
