Class - A template used to define an object. It specifies the methods and attributes an object should have. In the following example the class is the house.

Object - An instance of a class. In the following example myHouse is an object.

Method - A subroutine associated with an object. In the following example, changeDoorColour and changeFloors are methods

Attribute - Variables contained within and associated to an object. In the following example doorColour, floors and garden are attributes.
