More About distances

Distance is a big part of our lives. We use it every day. When we go to school, we think about how far it is. We also use it when we play games or sports.

Distance helps us plan trips. If we want to go to a park, we check how far it is. This helps us know if we can walk or need a ride.

In the future, we will learn more about distance. We can use tools like maps and GPS. This makes it easy to find places far away!
