Force and motion is a science topic children learn about very early in school life. Probably because it’s easy to experiment with! When I saw these graphics I simply had to make some little readers to add to our free LITTLE READER COLLECTION.
What is force and motion?
Force is basically pushing or pulling. There is gravity and magnets, but in these little readers we’re only using examples of physical force by using parts of our body or perhaps a bat.
Motion, of course, is what happens when force is applied!
Using these books
Please use these books as a catalyst for conversations about force and motion. They’re also a good opportunity to chat about safety and why we need to be careful in some force and motion-type situations. Force doesn’t just affect us, it also affects the people around us!
