Classify motion graphs
Grade 5 students classify motion graphs—distinguishing between constant speed, acceleration, and rest by reading position-time and speed-time graphs—in this Physical Science worksheet on Forces and Motion. Teachers can assign it after a lesson on graphing motion data, using it as a formative check or a partner discussion starter. The graph-reading focus builds scientific data literacy alongside core physics concepts for grade 5.
Learning objectives
- Classify motion graphs by identifying whether they show constant speed, acceleration, or rest
- Read position-time and speed-time graphs and describe what each shows
- Connect graph shape to the type of motion it represents
