We recently started teaching the unit of inquiry on force and motion. I would love to be able to get my students excited about this topic. Having the Force and Motion STEM kit would make this unit come to life for the students. I would also integrate literacy- Give it a Push! Give it a Pull! A Look at Forces when introducing this topic. My students would also have the opportunity to experiment with motion by using the different sized playground balls. These materials will be shared with the other two kindergarten classes at our school, so over 60 students would benefit from these materials.
