The children have had loads of fun today, exploring the concept of air resistance. Now that they know about gravity, it’s the ideal point to learn about how air resistance acts against that force. They worked in groups to make different-sized parachutes and tested how rapidly they fell to Earth. The children had made predictions beforehand and they then looked to see whether these were accurate. We have also been working hard towards independent scientific experimental write-ups and the outcomes were really pleasing. It was particularly enjoyable to see the class having loads of fun in their learning as they worked together.
