• Know that objects are pulled downwards because of the<br />
gravitational attraction between them and the Earth.<br />
• Know about friction as a force that slows moving objects and<br />

pull or push can be felt.<br />
• Know about devices that push and pull and make things move.<br />
• Explore the link between how far things move and the force<br />
applied (first).<br />
• Explain how friction affects movement (second).<br />
• Experience the upward force of water on objects and<br />
investigate why ships float (second).<br />
• Know about forces of different kinds; for example, gravity and<br />
