What age are types of forces worksheets for?

These are written for 2nd Grade students, roughly ages 7-8. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.

Are these types of forces worksheets aligned to NGSS?

Yes. Each one shows the NGSS code it covers on its own page, so you can check the alignment yourself rather than taking our word for it.

Can I use these types of forces worksheets for homeschool?

Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a 2nd Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.

2nd Grade Types of Forces Worksheets

Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher

Types of forces worksheets introduce Grade 2 students (ages 7-8) to the pushes and pulls that cause objects to start moving, stop, or change direction. Children learn about gravity, friction, and magnetic force through hands-on investigations and learn to describe the strength and direction of forces. These pages connect everyday physical experience to scientific vocabulary.
