Moving and falling objects/teaching approach

The resource introduces some ideas related to 'moving and falling objects' with ideas for activities to explore the topic with children and the sorts of objectives⁽ⁱ⁾ they should be meeting, and questioning⁽ⁱ⁾ teachers may engage in. The article provides a set of activities aimed at progressively older children to engage them in inquiry⁽ⁱ⁾ based learning. The article is aiming to explore how increasingly complex topics may be taught to children, and how teachers can ensure they have a good grasp of a topic - it ends with some suggestions for reading to further extend the primary teacher's knowledge of the area.
Some of the suggestions appear in the related resource Progression & questioning techniques in primary science projects
