7. Graph of ______________________________
This graph shows the motion of a bunny. The bunny is hopping from her burrow over to an oak tree. Describe the motion of the bunny. Tell a story about what is happening to her.
What is happening between seconds 4 and 6?
What is happening between seconds 6 and 8?

8. Graph of ______________________________
Which line on the graph is the bunny’s actual speed? How do you know?
Is it possible for the bunny to do what the straight line on the graph shows? Why or why not?
What do you know about the steepness of line on a distance/time graph?

9. Graph of ______________________________
This graph shows the motion of a car driving through your neighborhood. Describe the motion of the car.
Is this an actual speed graph or an average speed graph?
What is happening between points A and B?
What is happening between points B and C?
What is happening between points C and D?
What is the distance traveled between points A and D? How much time has passed?

10. A Graph of ______________________________
How much time has passed between points A and B?
What is the total distance traveled shown on the graph?
How much distance has been traveled between points B and D?
How much time has passed between points B and D?
What is happening between points D and E?
What is the furthest distance traveled?
What was the distance traveled in 50 seconds?
