A direction is the path that a thing (object) takes. For example, an object can be moved up, down, right, or left.

A force is a push or a pull that makes things (objects) move. A force can also make objects slow, go fast, stop or change direction. A force can be strong or weak.

A pull is when you use force to move a thing (object) closer to you.

A push is when you use force to move a thing (object) away from you.

Motion is when something (an object) is moving. When an object changes its position, it is moving.

When a thing (object) is not moving, it is at a stop.

If you are strong, you have the power to move heavy things (objects). You are the opposite of weak.

If you are weak, you can’t move things (objects) that are very heavy. You are the opposite of strong.
