HOW THINGS MOVE<br />

Teacher Notes<br />

<strong>Science</strong> Knowledge<br />

The way objects move depends on a variety of factors, including their size and shape.<br />

Indicators<br />

• Identifies three objects that roll, including toys with wheels or round surfaces.<br />

• Identifies three objects that slide, including objects with flat surfaces.<br />

• Identifies three objects that bounce, including balls and spring-loaded toys (optional).<br />

• Identifies three objects that spin, including spinners and cogs.<br />

Differentiation<br />

• Easier option—Page 61 requires pupils to draw a picture of three toys that roll, slide, bounce and<br />

spin. Pupils may be encouraged to find common classroom objects and test how they move to<br />

assist them.<br />

• Harder option—Page 62 requires pupils to write the names of three toys that move in each way—<br />

rolling, sliding, bouncing and spinning. Pupils then draw a picture of a toy that performs each<br />

movement. Pupils may be encouraged to find common classroom objects and test how they move<br />

to assist them.<br />
