GET UP AND DANCE!, DOG OBSTACLE COURSE

This unit will provide your pupils the foundations of forces and motion as they plan and conduct investigations about the cause and effect of push and pull forces. These workshops offer a beginning level of processes to asking and answering questions, data analysis and how to present their ideas.

PUSH CAR DERBY, ICE HOCKEY PRACTICE, TIGHTROPE WALKER, SAIL CAR, RELAY RACE

This unit will provide your pupils with an understanding of forces and motion as they plan and conduct investigations about the cause and effect of push and pull forces. These workshops will introduce your pupils to the process of asking and answering questions, data analysis and how to present their ideas. They will work towards determining whether their design solutions work as they were intended to change the speed or direction of an object with a push or a pull.

BOBSLEIGH, RACING CAR, GRAVITY CAR DERBY, TRACK AND FIELD, FREE THROW, WEIGHTLIFTER

This unit will develop your students' understanding of forces and motion as they engage in and conduct investigations about the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces. They'll investigate the patterns in an object's motion, developing and sharpening their ability to predict future motion. Along the way, they'll develop their collaborative conversation skills as they effectively engage in a range of discussions.
