    EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

    • We are EXPLORING the patterns associated with physical phenomena in simple everyday situations involving movement, forces and electricity.


    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • define the term 'force'.
    • distinguish between contact and non-contact forces.
    • describe the relationship between mass and weight.
    • describe the effect of balanced and unbalanced forces on an object.
    • name the four forces acting on a moving object.
    • define friction and understand how it affects motion.
    • define 'drag' and understand some basic aerodynamic principles.


    Activities:

    1. Reading interesting texts to answer questions.
    2. Complete an Aerodynamics Investigation and ensure that it is a fair test.
    3. Research.
