Students have been learning about Isaac Newton's first law. An object requires a force: either a push or pull to make it move.
Students have been experimenting with and investigating the forces of push and pull in every day life. Such as pushing a door shut or pulling the door open and pulling a sled up a hill or pushing the sled down the hill etc.
This is a difficult concept for most children, therefore, please point out the people you see using push or pull to move things. Examples are someone who is kicking a ball is pushing the ball to make it move or when you take a box off the shelf you are using the force of pull to move it.
