Quick answers

Before you buy

What format is this?

A digital PDF (8 pages), instant download after checkout on Etsy. Nothing ships. Print at home or school as many times as your own students need.

Which standards does it hit?

References NGSS PS2 (forces & motion) performance expectations 3-PS2-1 and MS-PS2-2. The pack bridges the elementary (3-PS2-1) and middle-school (MS-PS2-2) forces-and-motion expectations — that's how a Grades 4–6 resource references both. Alignment details are on every page footer of the pack.

Who are these teams?

All stats come from the Chalk & Turf League — our fictional league of invented teams and athletes, created for education. No licensing weirdness, and every stat line is tuned to teach.
