NGSS science standards alignment; 3-PS2-1 Plan and conduct an investigation to provide evidence of the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the motion of an object. 3-PS2-2 Make observations and/or measurements of an objects motion to provide evidence that a pattern can be used to predict future motion. 5-PS2-1 Support an argument that the gravitational force exerted by Earth on objects is directed down.

Power of Magnets; Learning outcome: Feel the pull toward this physics kit and get hands-on with magnets to find out what they can do and how they do it. NGSS science standards alignment; 3-PS2-3 Ask questions to determine cause and effect relationships of electric or magnetic interactions between two objects not in contact with each other. 3-PS2-4 Define a simple design problem that can be solved by applying scientific ideas about magnets.

MS-PS2-3 Ask questions about data to determine the factors that affect the strength of electric and magnetic forces. MS-PS2-5 Conduct an investigation and evaluate the experimental design to provide evidence that fields exist between objects exerting forces on each other even though the objects are not in contact. Controlling Collisions; Learning outcome: Crash into this physics kit to learn how materials and the structure of design impact the ability to withstand collisions.

NGSS science standards alignment; 3-5-ETS1-2 Generate and compare multiple possible solutions to a problem based on how well each is likely to meet the criteria and constraints of the problem. 3-5-ETS1-3 Plan and carry out fair tests in which variables are controlled and failure points are considered to identify aspects of a model or prototype that can be improved. 4-PS3-1 Use evidence to construct an explanation relating the speed of an object to the energy of that object.

4-PS3-3 Ask questions and predict outcomes about the changes in energy that occur when objects collide. 4-PS3-4 Apply scientific ideas to design, test, and refine a device that converts energy from one form to another. MS-PS3-1 Construct and interpret graphical displays of data to describe the relationships of kinetic energy to the mass of
