By the end of the lesson, the learner should be able to:

- Extract information from travel graphs.
- Interpret distance-time relationships.
- Appreciate the use of graphs to represent journeys.

In groups and individually, learners are guided to:
- Read and interpret given travel graphs.
- Answer questions on distance, time, and speed.
- Calculate speed from gradient of line segments.
- Identify periods of rest, acceleration, and deceleration.
