Fun with forces in Year 5!

Year 5 kick started the summer term with some Science days. We have been busy learning and experimenting with different forces including: friction, air resistance, water resistance and gravity.

As part of this we designed and carried out a friction investigation. This allowed us to put our mathematical skills to the test as we had to create a table to collect our data and a graph to present our results. In addition, we had to answer several mathematical questions interpreting our data to find the answer.
