First Week Back

This week we started our new Bikes topic. We have been reading information texts about bikes and forces and motion. On Thursday we investigated the effect of pushes and pulls on different materials.

When you push the sand through the wheel the sails move round.
You can squash the balls but they bounce back quickly.
You can push and pull plasticine into different shapes, but it won't go back to how it was before.


We are looking forward to learning more about the movement of bikes next week.
