1. Discovery Education: Newton’s Third Law – Watch the animation video provided. Answer the questions that follow:

· What does Newton’s Third Law of Motion say?

· What is an example of Newton’s Third Law?

· How is this idea of action-reaction used in sending a rocket into space?

2. Let’s Explore: Try pushing against a wall in your house. Push as hard as you can. Does the wall move? Why or why not? Is there a force pushing back? How do you know? Try bouncing a ball against the wall. What happens to the ball?

1. Let’s Talk: Find an empty laundry basket, hamper, or something similar. Try pushing the basket. Was it hard to do? Why or why not? Now fill the basket with heavy toys or lots of clothes or blankets. How does this change the mass of the basket compared to when it was empty?

Try pushing the basket now. Was it harder to push the basket? Why or why not? If so, what made the difference?

2. NASA: STEMonstrations – Newton’s Second Law of Motion demonstrated in space! Compares objects of different masses and explores the law of force and acceleration.

1. Discovery Education: Brief video describing how forces can change the motion of an object.

Changes in Motion

Getting active! Using a ball (basketball, soccer ball, etc.), place it on the ground. Is it moving? What would need to happen to make the ball move? Play a game with the ball and describe the forces that are acting upon the ball.

Brief educational video that describes forces.

2. STEMscopes: Picture Vocabulary

Critical vocabulary with definitions and pictures.

3. Getting active! Compete in a tug-of-war in which you and your child pull on opposite ends of a rope. Ask your child to determine when the forces are balanced, when they are unbalanced, and the direction of the net force.
