Lesson Title: Today we are learning about
What is Friction?
Remember to check for PROGRESS
Focus on Knowledge, Skills and Understanding
Success Criteria: You will show your learning by...
  1. Rubbing causes friction between surfaces.
  2. The amount of friction depends on the roughness of the surfaces (and closing force).
  3. Friction always acts to resist motion and therefore acts in the opposite direction to the (potential) motion.
Think about how you can match the needs of ALL students
Keywords:
  • Friction: The force caused by the rubbing of two different surfaces resulting in an increase in temperature (3)
  • Surfaces: The area of one side of an object. (2)
  • Roughness: A measure of the microscopic surface of an object. (1)

AFL/Key Questions:
  1. How can we cause friction?
    Rubbing causes friction between surfaces.
  2. What does the amount of friction depend on?
    The amount of friction depends on the roughness of the surfaces.
  3. In what direction does friction always act in relation to motion?
    Friction always acts to resist motion and therefore acts in the opposite direction to the (potential) motion.

Starter Activity Differentiation and Challenge question/task
  • Students to copy and complete the keywords.
  • Teacher reveals missing letters; Students correct mistakes;
  • Discuss the scientific meanings of the words.
  • Students to write down the definitions of the most important / new keywords.
  • Discuss the 'Memory Anchor'.
    • What does it show?
    • How does it relate to the what we are learning about today (title)?
Think about PACE – Develop, consolidate and deepen knowledge, skills and understanding
