Pom Pom Popper Assessment

This assessment is designed to be used at the completion of the Push and Pull Science Unit. Students will demonstrate their learning from the unit by identifying the different forces used by the pom pom popper, as well as how different amounts of force can affect the toy’s movement.

VCSIS051 Participate in guided investigations, including making observations using the senses, to explore and answer questions VCSSU048 The way objects move depends on a variety of factors including their size and shape: a push or a pull affects how an object moves or changes shape VCSIS052 Use informal measurements in the collection and recording of observations VCSIS055 Represent and communicate observations and ideas about changes in objects and events in a variety of ways
