Primary 1-4 have been learning a lot through active learning and experiments in their science topic of magnets and forces.
Pupils have investigated the effect that different surfaces (friction) has on a car, which was rolled down a ramp. They measured how far the car could travel across a range of different surfaces, such as bubble wrap.
When learning about magnets, pupils have investigated what objects are magnetic in the classroom, before going on to design their own game, using magnets. Pupils created a track on a paper plate, in which the aim of the game is to drag a magnetic vehicle along the route (using another magnet under the plate).
The series of science lessons have helped the pupils learn more about forces and magnets in a fun way.
