Explore pushes, pulls, gravity, friction, magnets, speed, and changes in motion with this 3rd grade science review game. This is a Grade 3 Science review game in a Jeopardy-style format: a teacher puts the board on one screen, teams pick clues by point value, and the class answers out loud — no student devices or accounts needed. Categories: Push or Pull, Motion, Gravity, Friction, Magnets.
- Grade 3 Science review
- Whole-class review on one shared screen
- Test or quiz prep
- Team-vs-team practice in class
