the ECEF "Adventure Aquarium" Assemblies March & April 2025

Alex hates physics! Playing with friends and toys is much more fun! However, over the course of the day, Alex quickly discovers that physics is all around us!  Our students will join Alex on an adventure and explore their world of physics, from simple motion to various forces such as pushes, pulls and gravity. By the end of our play-filled journey, the students will see how physics applies to their daily lives, and that experiencing physics can be as simple as a walk in the park. Students will discover, much like Alex does, that physics not only fun, it's Fundamental!

Through the assembly, students will be able to:

• Define a force such a s a push or pull
• Define gravity as a force that pulls objects straight down
• Visualize how a push or pull can change the motion of an object
• Recognize that different strengths or directions of pushes or pulls will affect the motion of an object
• Provide evidence on the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the motion of an object
