Force and Motion Using Ramps

Kindergarten completed their Force and Motion unit. We discussed many ideas like the difference between push and pull, how ramps affect motion, how weight affects motion and other various things that affect the motion of something. 
We made a Venn Diagram using various pictures of things that move and placed them in either the push, pull or even both circles.
The children had worksheets for review and also experimented with different types of ramps, smooth ramps, bumpy ramps, etc. They got to see first hand how various things may affect motion.
