MAKE OBJECTIVES

EVALUATE OBJECTIVES

understand and use mechanical systems in their products [for example, gears, pulleys, cams, levers and linkages]

Evaluation discussions/Feedback/Presentation

Content:Create Portal episode about mechanical systems - Link to Science

 

What are levers?A lever is a simple machine that helps lift or move loads with less effort. It consists of a rigid bar that pivots on a fixed point called the fulcrum. By applying force on one end of the lever, you can make it easier to move something on the other end.

What are mechanisms?A mechanical mechanism is a system of parts, such as lever, pulleys and gears, working together in a machine to perform a function.

What is a pulley?A pulley is a simple machine that consists of a wheel with a groove along its edge, through which a rope, cable, or belt can pass. It is used to lift, lower, or move heavy objects with less effort.

What is a gear?A gear is a wheel with teeth that fit into the teeth of another gear. When one gear turns, it makes the other gear turn too. Gears help change the speed, direction, or force of movement in machines, like bikes, clocks, and cars.

SCIENCE

National Curriculum:

Forces

explain that unsupported objects fall towards the Earth because of the force of gravity acting between the Earth and the falling object

identify the effects of air resistance, water resistance and friction, that act between moving surfaces

recognise that some mechanisms including levers, pulleys and gears allow a smaller force to have a greater effect 

Discussions

WOW! Wonder Launch

Balloon rocket.

Children explore a range of materials to create a rocket that move a small item from one side of the room to the other.

Investigations:

Can forces be increased? (Friction)

What is friction?Friction is the force between two surfaces that are in contact with each other.

What is gravity?Gravity is the invisible force that pulls objects toward each other, keeping us on Earth and planets in orbit around the Sun.

What is air resistance?The type of frictional force between an object and air particles as the object moves through air.

What is water resistance?The type of frictional force between an object and water particles as the object moves throufh water.
