We have been learning about forces and the effect of friction by finding out how long it takes a car to go down ramps covered in different surfaces. We used stopwatches because the times were very quick except for the bubble wrap surface when the cars stopped!

In PE we experimented with friction and forces by playing Tug of War. 

Our biggest boy against our smallest girl is an example of unbalanced forces.

We learnt that having the correct soles in the gym hall will create friction and help us not to slip!

The final photos show an example of balanced forces; both teams were using the same amount of force, so they hardly moved.

I hope that everyone has a great few days break.
