This teacher guide outlines a lesson focused on the concepts of push and pull forces, emphasizing hands-on learning through observation and demonstration. The lesson is designed for an 8-minute session and includes necessary materials such as video clips and physical objects for illustrating the concepts. Students will engage in activities to define push and pull forces, identify examples in daily life, and explain the effects of these forces on object movement. Through interactive participation, students will learn how pushes and pulls can start or stop motion, change direction, and vary in strength. The guide includes practical exercises for students to identify pushes and pulls in their classroom environment and concludes with a creative exit ticket activity where students draw examples from home.
