How fast is a sprinter, a bus or a cheetah? Teach pupils to calculate speed and read journey graphs. This 17-slide interactive lesson on calculating speed takes pupils from first ideas to exam-style explanations, with 10 self-marking activities and nothing to prepare beforehand.
Pupils calculate speed with speed = distance ÷ time, rearrange the equation to find distance and time, and choose the correct units. They read simple distance–time graphs, explain what flat and steeper lines show, and work out average speed for real journeys and relative speed for objects moving in the same direction.
