STEM Project Energy and Forces HOW THINGS MOVE The problem Project Brief Adam and Sarah love playing with toy cars. Adam always chooses a small sports car because he likes to pretend he is a racing car driver and thinks they move the fastest. Sarah likes to choose fire engines because she likes to pretend she is a firefighter, moving fast to put out fires. How can Adam and Sarah test which toy car can roll faster and further? The task 1. Design and create a racetrack that Adam and Sarah can use to test which vehicle is the fastest and which vehicle travels the furthest. 2. Create a video showing the two vehicles racing down the track and their finishing positions. Important things you need to do! • You must work in pairs. WATER Ten Unifix® cubes high Viewing sample • It must have a ramp at the start that is ten Unifix® cubes high. • It must be long enough for both cars to roll all the way to their finish position. • It must be made from recycled cardboard and paper. • The video must include a description of each vehicle, including its size, weight and shape. It must also show which vehicle moved faster/slower and which travelled further. WATER 66 Science: A STEM APPROACH Infants 978-1-912760-14-5 Prim-Ed Publishing – www.prim-ed.com
Energy and Forces HOW THINGS MOVE Project Steps STEM Project Find out information Learn about the size, shape and weight of each vehicle. Look at the two vehicles and compare their size. Look at the two vehicles and compare their shape. Heft the two vehicles to compare their weight. Learn about different types of racetracks and ramps. Look at toy racetracks that can be bought in a shop. Look at toy racetracks that other people have made at home. Find out about different types of ramps you can build. Design, plan and collect resources Plan your racetrack. Draw your racetrack. Decide which type of ramp you will make— straight or curved. Label the parts of your racetrack including the ramp, the straight track, the barriers and the start line. Collect the materials you need. Create Create your racetrack. Decide which materials you will use to make each part. Make the racetrack. Check and make changes Viewing sample Check that it is correct and you are happy with it. Decide which materials you will use to make each part. Check that both partners are happy with it. Communicate Use a tablet computer to record a video. Describe each vehicle and the results of the racetrack test. www.prim-ed.com – Prim-Ed Publishing 978-1-912760-14-5 Science: Infants A STEM APPROACH 67
