4) Ask 5 students to stand on running track at the starting point and other five students will note down the time of the runner.

5) Third group will calculate the speed of 5 students.

6) After getting the result we can compare the speed of the student who is fast and slow.

7) Likewise we can interchange the student to do this activity in such a way that all will get the chance to run, to record the time and to calculate the speed from data.

Variations

We can use the running track and road in the city.
