This app is designed for children to to strengthen their science investigation skills and explore the concepts of force and motion as they:
• Understand that a force is a push or pull on an object, and that forces can come from a person, another object, or gravity.
• Observe how forces pushing or pulling on an object can make the object move and that bigger forces make the object move faster and farther.
• Describe the incline of a pathway using words such as steep, steeper, and less steep.
• Describe the texture of a pathway’s surface using words such as smooth, slippery, and bumpy.
• Understand that objects generally move farther and faster on steeper or smoother pathways.
• Make predictions and carry out experiments about how an object will move.
Coconut Star and the entire Ramps curriculum supplement from Early Science with Nico & Nor™ was rigorously researched and developed specifically for preschool classroom use. The Ramps unit contains two apps: Coconut Star and the Ramps Journal. Children and teachers use the Ramps Journal to record videos and results from their ramp experiments.
Each Early Science with Nico & Nor curriculum supplement combines traditional classroom activities with digital learning to promote young children’s engagement with age-appropriate science practices and concepts during circle time, learning centers, read-aloud book sessions, snack time, and outdoor play!
