Year 3 Science - Forces

The children in Year 3 have been enjoying carrying out practical experiments to explore the topic of "Forces" in their Science lessons. 

They have been combining in teams to measure the strength of magnets, to test and measure the distances different things will roll  down a ramp, and to create effective parachutes that create air resistance while still managing to balance. 

Perhaps you could test them at home to see if they can remember what is meant by "Gravity" and  "Friction" ?
