answers on the corresponding
columns.
Discussion:
1. after checking their answers,
ask the class:
*How do you know that an
object moved?
*Why is it important to include

describing the location of an
object?

measure the distance travelled
by an object?
2. Show a picture of a road mark
* Is this a road mark?
*why is it important?
Generalization:
Do you understand the lesson?
