About this resource

This quiz focuses on the fundamental concepts of force and motion, which is perfectly aligned with 4th grade physical science curriculum. The questions assess students' understanding of basic physics vocabulary and principles, including the definitions of force, motion, mass, gravity, and friction. Students need to grasp that forces are pushes and pulls that result from object interactions, understand how gravity works as a pulling force related to mass, and recognize that friction opposes motion. The quiz also evaluates their comprehension of balanced versus unbalanced forces and how these affect object motion. The content requires students to differentiate between related scientific terms and apply their knowledge of cause-and-effect relationships in physical systems. Created by Joy Holeman, an Other Sciences teacher in the US who teaches grade 4. This quiz serves as an excellent tool for formative assessment, allowing teachers to gauge student understanding of essential force and motion vocabulary before moving into more complex applications. It works effectively as a warm-up activity to activate prior knowledge, as guided practice during instruction, or as homework to reinforce classroom learning. The quiz format makes it ideal for review sessions before unit tests or as a diagnostic tool to identify students who need additional support with fundamental concepts. This assessment directly supports NGSS standard 5-PS2-1 (motion and forces) and helps build the conceptual foundation students need for more advanced physics concepts in middle school.
