About this worksheet
Before students can calculate a net force, they need the words. This one-page activity introduces net force, balanced, unbalanced, and newtons through four short scenarios (two kids pushing a box, a tug-of-war, a speeding cart, a spring scale). Students read each sentence, find the clues around the underlined word, and circle the best meaning. Print it and it works as a bell-ringer, morning work, or a sub-plan slot.
What's Included
- 1 student page: 4 illustrated context-clue cards, each with three answer choices
- 1 teacher key page with the correct definition for every term
- Letter-size PDF, no prep
