Pushes & Pulls

Science · Forces & Motion · conceptual

Understand that pushes and pulls are forces that can change the speed or direction of an object's motion, and compare the effects of different strengths and directions

What mastery looks like

  • Describe a push and a pull as types of force that make objects move, speed up, slow down, or change direction
  • Compare the effects of a gentle push versus a strong push on the same object
  • Predict the direction an object will move based on the direction of the applied force

Check your understanding

Can Pushes & Pulls explain that pushing a toy car harder makes it go faster, and pushing it sideways makes it change direction?
