Lesson Title: Today we are learning about
How are Forces classified?
Remember to check for PROGRESS
Focus on Knowledge, Skills and Understanding
Success Criteria: You will show your learning by...
  1. Forces can also be classified as either: - non-contact forces: - gravity forces acting at a distance on Earth and in space, - forces between magnets, - Electrostatic forces due to static electricity: Rubbed balloon
  2. Pushing things out of the way also creates a type of friction: - ball pit balls - air (particles): air resistance - water (particles): water resistance These forces are also called drag.
Think about how you can match the needs of ALL students
Keywords:
  • Air resistance: A force created on a body moving through air. (1)
  • Particles: A term we use to describe a set of similar objects, typically microscopic. (1)
  • Water resistance: A force created on a body moving through water. (1)
  • Drag: A more general term for a force on an object acting in the opposite direction to its direction of travel. (1)
  • Friction (1)
  • Electrostatic: An attraction that causes an attractive force between particles of opposite charge and a repulsive force of similar charges. (1)
  • Contact: Where there two objects do touch each other. (1)
  • Non-contact: Where there two objects do not touch each other. (1)
  • Gravity: An attraction that causes a force between two or more objects with mass. (1)
  • Magnetic: An attraction that causes a field between magnets, ferrous metals or charged particles. (1)
  • Force (1)

AFL/Key Questions:
  1. What are the 3 non-contact forces?
    The 3 non-contact forces are: Electrostatic; Magnetic; Weight due to gravity;
  2. How else, other than rubbing two objects together, can friction be produced? What is this also known as?
    Pushing things out of the way also creates a type of friction: - ball pit balls - air (particles): air resistance - water (particles): water resistance These forces are also called drag.

Differentiation: AGT, SEND, LLL, Disadvantaged
Remember to check for PROGRESS
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
