Core Idea - Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions

[PreK.PS.2.2] - Through experience, develop awareness of factors that influence whether things stand or fall. Clarification Statement: Examples of factors in children’s construction play include using a broad foundation when building, considering the strength of materials, and using balanced weight distribution in a block building.

Successor Standards:

  • K.PS.2.1
    Compare the effects of different strengths or different directions of pushes and pulls on the motion of an object. Clarification Statements: Examples of pushes or pulls could include a string attached to an object being pulled, a person pushing an object, a person stopping a rolling ball, and two objects colliding and pushing on each other; Comparisons should be on different relative strengths or different directions, not both at the same time;Non-contact pushes or pulls such as those produced by magnets are not expected.

Same Level Standards:

  • SL.PK.5
    Create representations of experiences or stories (e.g., drawings, constructions with blocks or other materials, clay models) and explain them to others.
  • PK.MD.A.1
    Recognize the attributes of length, area, weight, and capacity of everyday objects using appropriate vocabulary (e.g., long, short, tall, heavy, light, big, small, wide, narrow).
