Instructions
Play through this interactive game to learn about Patterns of Motion. Suitable for Grade 3, Grade 4, Grade 5.
Main Concepts
A force is a push or pull on an object.(ES)
A force has both a strength and a direction.
Motion is the change in position of an object.
Gravity is a force that pulls all objects on Earth down towards Earth’s surface.
The motion of objects in some situations demonstrate regular patterns.
Patterns of motion can be observed and measured.
When the past motion of an object demonstrates a regular pattern, future motion can be predicted from it.
Discussion Questions

What happens when you push a ball down a hill? How can you change how high someone is going on a swing?
After the Game
How did the game show you examples of force versus motion? What is the difference between force and strength? What happened to the ball when you changed the strength? How did you predict a future motion?
