Theme: "Learn Along" Bingo Things That Go
Welcome to "Learn Along" Bingo with PBS Kids!  This week we are investigating force and motion to see how things move and how different conditions affect the speed of objects. 
Two age level areas are available – PreK-K and Grades 1-2. 
PreK-K
This week, we're learning about how force and motion helps us to see how pushes and pulls make things move. This activity packet combines many different ideas for movement and games. Can you make your own bowling alley with the Sesame Street instructions?

Curious George Pinwheel
Wind can force things to go. Explore the wind with this Curious George pinwheel. You may need help using scissors and the pushpin with the pencil eraser.
Grades 1-2
In this packet, we're learning about how force and motion helps us to see how different conditions affect the speed of objects. Activities include a Nature Cat Boat Activity and the Ready Jet Go Rocket Launcher. Be sure to read through all of them!
Beep Space Rover

For something really different check out this rover craft from Ready Jet Go. Follow the instructions on each page to cut out and create your very own Beep Space Rover! The supplies are simple, but you will need adult help with instructions and assembly.
 
Slidea-ma-zoo game



Cat in the Hat fun at the slide park!  In this game you can discover how height and friction can make a slide go slower or faster. Practice building a faster slide. Can you help Nick to move faster than Thing 1??
