Description

This worksheet has been designed for students to record their observations as they complete various push and pull experiments. Students will identify the force that they use and will record their observations after changing the power of the force they use.

Use in conjunction with the experiments that are suggested in Lesson 4 of the Push and Pull unit.

Curriculum Codes

Describe pushes and pulls in terms of strength and direction and predict the effect of these forces on objects’ motion and shape

Suggest and follow safe procedures to investigate questions and test predictions

Make and record observations, including informal measurements, using digital tools as appropriate

Write and create texts to communicate observations, findings and ideas, using everyday and scientific vocabulary

Compare observations with predictions and others’ observations, consider if investigations are fair and identify further questions with guidance

ACSSU033 8.4

A push or a pull affects how an object moves or changes shape

ACSIS025 8.4

Participate in guided investigations to explore and answer questions

ACSIS026 8.4

Use informal measurements to collect and record observations, using digital technologies as appropriate

ACSIS213 8.4

Compare observations with those of others

ACSIS029 8.4

Represent and communicate observations and ideas in a variety of ways

The way objects move depends on a variety of factors including their size and shape: a push or a pull affects how an object moves or changes shape

Participate in guided investigations, including making observations using the senses, to explore and answer questions

Use informal measurements in the collection and recording of observations

Compare observations and predictions with those of others

Represent and communicate observations and ideas about changes in objects and events in a variety of ways
