The Force Awakens!

This term, Year 2 have been learning about forces. A force is a push or pull on an object. A force can cause an object to get faster, slow down, remain in place, change shape or change direction.

Take a look at the video below to learn more about force and gravity.

Earlier in the term, Mr Crook visited Year Two to help us learn about the different push and pull forces that are used in different sports. Take a look at the photos below!

    Dear year 2
    For science we have been learning about force and gravity it has been fun the so we made something fun.We also had a incursion and it was the best incursion ever! The best part was when gpot to have fun with a bin but with air inside and we put inside smoke in the bin it was amazing and that wasthe end.

    Dear Year Two,
    I liked the part when the teacher had a bin with a red cloth on top with a string. It was special because it had a hole and the bin also had air/gas inside. The teacher punched the top of the cloth then air/gas came out in a ring shape.
    Kind regards

    Dear Year Two the best thing about the incursion was playing with the magnets because I could make them move by other magnets.I learnt something called friction a thing that is bumpy has a lot of friction when something is smooth it does not have a lot of friction.

    Kind regards J.V

    Dear Year Two,
    I am answering the question “what did you like best about the incursion?”
    Well I liked when the lady put smoke in the bin and when she hit the bin the smoke came out looking like a circle. I also liked it when she taught us the word inertia.

    kind regards,

    Dear Year 2,

    In this subject, I learnt about gravity. Gravity is when force keeps something on the ground and it also creates the waves at the beach. If we didn’t have gravity on the earth, we would be floating in the air. My sister told me that the bigger the planet is, the stronger the gravity is.

    Dear Year 2,
    I have enjoyed going to our science incursion. I liked how our science teacher entertained us by buying interesting equipment for us to play with. I think most of us liked to play with this rocket thing because it looked like magic when it popped up. You have to step on the bubble connected to the rocket and the gas pushes it up. I also liked playing with the magnets. How I played with it was you have to put one magnet under the table and another magnet on the table and you drag the top magnet and you don’t have to hold it because it is magnet!
    I’m glad most people liked our incursion from the comments that I read. I hope we have another incursion soon!

    Dear Year Two,
    A push and a pull is a force that push and pulls an object. When a parachute is going down gravity is pulling it down.
