Lesson Planning

Teaching


Activities

  1. Investigate the effect of ground friction on the force needed to move a rolling car, taking accurate measurements and recording data effectively (Yr5 - with support/Yr6 –ind.)
  2. Recommend a ground covering that creates the right level of friction for the safe (but fun) movement of a rolling car on a ride (Yr5&6)
  3. Draw a diagram showing how forces act on a rolling car (Yr6)

Investigation
Rolling Car Ride: friction. Explore the science of a rolling car ride and make recommendations for the right kind of surface – fast enough for some fun, but not so fast that that it scares the visitors away. (Exploring, Problem solving, Pattern seeking, Fair testing)
Years 5&6 - Investigate the effect of ground friction on the force needed to move a rolling car, taking accurate measurements and recording data effectively(Y5 - with support & Y6 –ind)
Years 5&6 - Recommend a ground covering that creates the right level of friction for the safe (but fun) movement of a rolling car on a ride
Year 6 - Draw a diagram showing how forces act on a rolling car


Vocabulary
Variables, accuracy, gravity, friction, air resistance, causal relationship
