The Force Continues To Be Strong In You Year 5!
What are non-contact forces?
This week in Science we will learn about non-contact forces. We will investigate gravity and learn about Galileo by completing an investigation. Finally, we will learn about magnetic force, including some uses for magnets.
Look at your work from the last three weeks to remind yourself of what we have learned so far about Forces.
Remember to pause the video below when asked, or when there is a question, and to use your exercise book to write down your answers.
If you would like to learn more about Galileo Galilei....who is a really interesting scientist to research....you could create a fact file about him. This will help you for when we begin our topic on Earth and Space.
Did You Know?
Scientist Galileo Galilei was born in 1564 and became famous for his work on mathematics and astronomy. He developed the telescope to enable close observation of the night sky and was famously imprisoned for his (correct) theory that the sun was at the centre of the universe.
