Explain how objects push on each other and may change shape when they touch or collide.
Teachers can use 2.7A to sequence instruction on Pushes & collisions and monitor progress toward mastery.
Standard 2.7A in Science helps students understand Pushes & collisions and apply knowledge with confidence.
Start with concrete or familiar examples, connect to prior knowledge, model a clear process, and provide checks for understanding aligned to 2.7A.
Standard 2.7A describes the essential skills and understandings for Pushes & collisions in Grade 2. It clarifies the learning outcomes and what successful work looks like.
It lays groundwork for the next grade by deepening accuracy and flexibility with Pushes & collisions, so students can tackle more complex problems later.
Use short exit tickets and tasks where students explain decisions, show multiple representations, or justify answers—directly aligned to 2.7A.
