Kindergarten Science · World 6: Push and Pull Playground · Level 35
Toss and Drop
Tossing, dropping, kicking, and throwing make things move.
Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. About 15 minutes.
What children learn in Level 35
- There are lots of ways to make a ball move! A kick is a push with your foot.
- A throw sends a ball through the air with your arm. A toss is a soft, gentle throw.
- When you drop a ball, you let go, and it falls straight down.
- A ball can't start moving by itself. Something has to push it or pull it.
- Try it with a grown-up! Kick, throw, toss, and drop a soft ball. Watch how it moves each time.
Georgia Standards of Excellence in Science:
- SKP2.a — Plan and carry out an investigation to determine the relationship between an object's physical attributes and its resulting motion (straight, circular, back and forth, fast and slow, and motionless) when a force is applied. (Examples could include toss, drop, push, and pull.)
