Introduces gravity as a pull that can curve motion
Predict what might happen, then identify the number, measurement, or cause-and-effect clue you will watch.
Pause after a result and compare it with the prediction. Notice what changed and what stayed the same.
Use Junior Scientist: Field Exploration Log to show the same skill away from the screen with drawing, labels, examples, or written reasoning.
Use a smaller quantity, a drawing, counters, or a two-column comparison before returning to the full challenge.
Change one variable, predict the result, and explain why a fair comparison keeps other conditions the same.
These references identify a possible practice connection, not curriculum alignment. Use the evidence prompt to check what the learner can explain away from the score.
Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
A logic puzzle can create an opportunity to plan, test, notice a mismatch, and revise.
Look for this evidenceAsk for the learner's first plan, the point where evidence changed that plan, and one revision they would try next. A score alone is not evidence.
Confirm your school, district, province, state, or country requirements before using any activity in a formal plan.

Introduces gravity as a pull that can curve motion
Yes. On mobile or tablet, kids can use: Tap to place gravity stars, drag the pull slider, tap Reset to restart.
Guide a puppy explorer through a bright garden maze, collect four hidden star gems, and unlock the treasure chest using the shortest trail you can find.

View gamePuppy Gravity Garden is a playful path-planning game. Gravity stars pull the puppy astronaut and bend the flight path. Players place up to three stars, adjust pull strength, collect five moon gems, and guide the puppy into the portal.
The game uses an invented, simplified rule set. It does not simulate quantum gravity, black holes, general relativity, or a real spacecraft trajectory. Its value is in prediction, cause and effect, and revising a plan after observing motion.
Placing many stars immediately can make it hard to explain which one changed the path. Start with one variable and build carefully.
Draw the intended route before launching. After the attempt, draw the observed route in another colour. Circle the place where the paths first differ, then add an arrow showing the next adjustment.
This before-and-after comparison matters more than completing the level quickly. A finished route shows that one plan worked inside the game; it does not establish a law of physics.
For a structured record, use the science exploration log or build a science learning plan.
