Kindergarten Students Explore Force and Motion

3/11/2020

 
Kindergarten students explored the concept of force and motion. They conducted investigations to provide evidence of the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the motion of an object. Students observed how objects in contact exert forces on each other and how forces can be exerted without contact such as gravity or the magnetic force. They also gathered evidence that a pattern can be used to predict future motion. Using all the evidence collected, students were able to find connections to real life and share examples.
