Fantastic forces in Y5

Year 5 spent the start of last week exploring different forces. One of the forces we learned about was friction. As part of our friction learning, we worked in groups to plan and carry out a scientific experiment into friction. We explored two different variables: - The friction of different shoes -The friction of different surfaces We thought about what we would need to do to keep our tests fair. As part of our maths, we created a table to collect and present our results. Once we had collected our results we used these to create graphs to show our friction findings before drawing conclusions about which surface and shoe provided the most friction.
