Forces at Grant Park

 

P7H accompanied Primary 1 to Grant Park to assist them with their learning context ‘Swings and Roundabouts’.  Both classes are studying forces, so this was an ideal opportunity for the P7s to help the P1s understand the forces push and pull as well as think about their own gravity, friction and air resistance studies.  The children were split in to three groups – forces at work in the play park, gravity experiments at the chestnut tree and a game of tug of war on the grass to investigate friction.  Great fun was had by all!
