Watching construction equipment lets students see forces at work. Encourage them to discuss what each machine does, using "work words" like PUSH and LIFT and MOVE.

Each of these made-for-kindergarteners videos introduces a different type of construction equipment.

Bulldozers push piles of dirt and sand.

Cranes lift heavy objects.

Trucks of all kinds carry or pull heavy things from one place to another.

Scroll down for Activity Prep.

1. Form groups of four to six.

2. Assign roles. Each group needs one person to be the Roller and one person to be the Catcher. Everyone else is a Bumper. Decide who will take the first turn in each role.

3. Get supplies. Roller gets a ball. Each Bumper gets a hardcover book. Bumpers use their books to bump the ball when it's about to roll out of the alley. They also keep the ball moving down the alley so it can knock down the pins.

4. The goal of Human Bumper Bowling is to knock down the pins with lots of bumps along the way.

5. Let each Roller have two turns, then move in a circle to switch roles so everyone gets a turn as Roller.
