This math unit begins by teaching students to calculate speed from distance and time with an emphasis on unit conversions, advancing to more complex scenarios involving calculating car speeds and travel times using clock times. Students progress to comparing travel times among different moving objects requiring unit conversions and applying these skills to return trip scenarios. The unit develops further by incorporating variables and changing units in problems that involve calculating time from distance and speed, as well as speed from distance and time intervals. Advanced topics include scenarios where two cars, traveling the same distance or duration at different speeds, require calculations to solve for unknown speeds using algebra. The unit peaks with problems that challenge students to determine which of two entities is faster or has traveled further, involving complex conversions between different units of distance and time, enhancing problem-solving skills, algebraic manipulations, and understanding relationships within speed, distance, and time contexts.
