Air resistance
We made parachutes to test the effect of air resistance
Learning about gravity
We learned that gravity pulls all objects to the Earth with the same force.

Heliocentric and Geocentric Theories
Pupils made a science video describing and explaining how the theories of our solar system has evolved from early human life to the current model (21st Century).
Heliocentric and Geocentric theories
We continued our recent work on forces by looking at friction. We tested a range of footwear using a carpet-covered ramp and a force meter to investigate the ways in which friction works. The grip on the soles of our shoes created varying amounts of friction, and we discussed the ways in which we would create the perfect footwear for a top secret agent to use when chasing the baddies. We'd love to tell you more about this, but unfortunately our results are top secret.
