Push or Pull? Cut and Sort

Identify real-life examples of pushes and pulls with this cut-and-paste worksheet! To begin, students will review the definitions of a push and a pull. Then, learners will cut out eight images at the bottom of the page and sort them by whether they show a push or a pull. 

Created for kindergarteners and first graders, this physical science worksheet reinforces how pushes and pulls affect an objects’ movement. Students will be introduced to two everyday forces, which lays the foundation for learning about different types of forces and their effects on motion.
