Investigating Friction

Lesson: Science

Class: Year 3 Year: 2022 - 2023

We have been learning about the contact force 'friction.' We investigated this using different surfaces and shoes. We explored the force meters and surfaces to begin with. We then used a force meter (Newtons) to measure the frictional force created when pulling the shoe along a surface. We made predictions, tested, recorded our results in a table, then put them on a bar graph and finally evaluated what we had foudn out.
