Function is relation between two quantities.
For example, in uniform accelerated motion in one dimension,  distance S travelled as a function of time
for given initial velocity u and acceleration a is given by
 
S(t) = u×t +(1/2)×a×t2 ..........................(1)
 
function given in (1), describes how S varies with t
 
derivative of a function means differentiation of a function with respect to independent variable.
In the above eqn.(1), t is independent variable.
 
derivative of S(t) means dS/dt, ie for a small change of t (i.e. dt), what is change in S (i.e. dS)
 
in the above eqn.(1),  as per calculus, (dS/dt) = u + a×t
