Push and Pull - Sorting Cards
These push and pull sorting cards make a terrific hands-on addition to your Science unit as students learn to identify the force required to move different objects.
They can be used as a whole class warm-up, small group activity or early finisher task. Use hula hoops for small groups to create a venn diagram using the cards.
