ABOUT THIS READER
This passage introduces kindergarteners to the basics of motion and forces, aligned with NGSS Standard K-PS2. Kids learn how objects move in different ways, such as rolling, sliding, and bouncing, through relatable examples like balls and wagons. The text emphasizes how pushes and pulls affect movement, helping young learners connect the concept to their everyday actions, such as opening a door or pulling a toy. This engaging and simple explanation encourages curiosity about motion and stability, using terms like 'push,' 'pull,' 'roll,' and 'slide' to build foundational knowledge in physical science.

How Things Move
Did you know that things move in different ways? Some things roll, like a ball. Some things slide, like a sled on snow. And some things can even bounce, like a rubber ball!
When you push something, it can move away from you. When you pull something, it comes closer to you. A wagon moves when you pull it. A swing goes back and forth when you push it.
We use pushes and pulls every day! You can push a door to open it or pull your toy closer to play. Pushing and pulling help us move things around!
