Kristel Pushes and Pulls

In Kristel Pushes and Pulls, a bed mysteriously ends up hanging in a tree in Kristel’s front yard. Kristel is determined to figure out how it got there and e-book readers will help her figure it out. As Kristel progresses through the day, she explores her activities that involve push and pull forces. She notices how these forces cause objects to change position, move different distances, and change speed and direction. Whether cleaning her room, eating breakfast, or playing soccer, Kristel uses her everyday activities to figure out how her parent’s bed mysteriously ended up in a tree in the front yard.

These e-books are highly interactive, self-directed learning experiences designed to augment understanding of science content. These e-books include high-resolution images, animations, videos, and interactive simulations.
