Progression & questioning techniques in primary science projects

Measuring force and measuring progress.

About. A table of questions to use when children work on forces and air resistance:

Pedagogical content. This resource provides an overview of the Year 6 scheme of work - 6E Forces in action and includes some experiment examples. The experiments could be run in class, with increasingly advanced objectives⁽ⁱ⁾ including students' use of language^(ta), the factors they discuss, the way they use equipment, assessment⁽ⁱ⁾, etc. This resource can work as standalone lesson ideas / science projects /inquiry⁽ⁱ⁾, or to illustrate progression of concepts through a scheme of work or curriculum planning⁽ⁱ⁾ document.
