Forces Poster Set
Students will learn about the different types of forces that can be exerted by one object on another. They will learn about non-contact forces, contact forces, friction, gravity and push & pull.
Learning goals
- We are learning to identify how forces can be exerted by one object on another through direct contact or from a distance.
- We are learning to describe pushes and pulls and the forces used to move objects.
