Primary 1-4 have been learning a lot through active learning and experiments in their science topic of magnets and forces.<\/p>\n
Pupils have investigated the effect that different surfaces (friction) has on a car, which was rolled down a ramp.\u00a0 They measured how far the car could travel across a range of different surfaces, such as bubble wrap.<\/p>\n
When learning about magnets, pupils have investigated what objects are magnetic in the classroom, before going on to design their own game, using magnets.\u00a0 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).<\/p>\n
The series of science lessons have helped the pupils learn more about forces and magnets in a fun way.<\/p>\n
