    Unit 2: Force & Motion
    This week we start our next unit, Force & Motion. This is a very long
    unit (over 20 weeks) and covers simple machines, magnetism, electrical
    circuits, flight and friction & gravity. Materials have arrived, so we will
    dig right in studying the topics of force, motion, gravity and friction. This
    unit has lots of hands on activities and should be a lot of fun, but we will
    be exploring some important science concepts. Be sure to ask your child
    about Activity 1, because I assure you they will be excited about it.
