Push and pull examples for kids Grade 2

📚 Quick Study Guide

🔍 Push: A push moves something away from you. Think about pushing a toy car or a swing. It makes things go further! 💡 Pull: A pull moves something closer to you. Like pulling a wagon or opening a door. It brings things nearer! 📝 Forces: Both pushes and pulls are forces. Forces can change how things move. 🍎 Gravity: Gravity is a force that pulls everything down to the Earth. That's why things fall when you drop them! ➡️ Motion: Pushes and pulls can start, stop, speed up, slow down, or change the direction of an object's motion.
