Great as an add-on to this lesson:

Are your students having a hard time remembering and understanding the concepts of force, energy and motion? The delightful 3-part comic strip Forces at Play introduces force, energy and motion in a fun way, featuring characters from the book Adam Baum: The Autistic Engineer. The use of puns and play on words make science terms fun and more relatable.

Also, available Adam Baum eMotion, an audiobook version of the story available in my TpT store. A physical copy of my book is available for order on Amazon.
