In this assignment, students practice calculating basic speed problems (12 problems). For each problem, students identify the equation to use, plug in the numbers provided, and solve for speed, distance, or time. They also learn to include correct units in their final answer.

In this assignment, students practice calculating basic speed problems. They're provided various distances and times ran by students and will calculate their speeds. Then, students create a bar graph to show their data using Google Sheets. This is a great way to teach and practice creating and reading graphs on Google Sheets.

Students already know distance and speed. In this activity, students carry out several tasks to learn about displacement and velocity. Students determine the distance and displacement of three trials on the football field. They determine the speed and velocity of three trials on the football field. Students make connections between all terms and begin to understand the similarities and differences between them. Note: The activity is typically done outside on the football field, but was modified
