Exploring Movements



Kindergarten students used different learning materials in the classroom to explore movements. They used linking cubes and blocks to create spinning tops. They also used paper to build planes. They tried different sizes and different surfaces to spin their spinning tops and fly their planes. Children also demonstrated understanding of the different ways objects can move, and that force (a push or pull) applied to an object causes it to move.  During this inquiry, their conversation included the words:  fast, slow, back and forth,  and round and round.
