In this lesson students will explored the toys from different countries and cultures and the forces that are used when playing with them.
Describe pushes and pulls in terms of strength and direction and predict the effect of these forces on objects’ motion and shape
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
Observes, questions and collects data to communicate ideas
Develops solutions to an identified need
Observes the way objects move and relates changes in motion to push and pull forces
A push or a pull affects how an object moves or changes shape
Describe how people use science in their daily lives, including using patterns to make scientific predictions
Observes, questions and collects data to communicate and compare ideas
Recognises observable changes occurring in the sky and on the land and identifies Earth’s resources
Science involves observing, asking questions about, and describing changes in, objects and events
People use science in their daily lives
Uses materials, tools and equipment to develop solutions for a need or opportunity
Describes observable features of living things and their environments
Identifies how plants and animals are used for food and fibre products
People use science in their daily lives, including when caring for their environment and living things
Pose questions to explore observed simple patterns and relationships and make predictions based on experiences
Respond to and pose questions, and make predictions about familiar objects and events
Identifies that materials can be changed or combined
Describes how the properties of materials determine their use
Pose and respond to questions, and make predictions about familiar objects and events
Suggest and follow safe procedures to investigate questions and test predictions
Participate in guided investigations, including making observations using the senses, to explore and answer questions
Participate in guided investigations to explore and answer questions
Make and record observations, including informal measurements, using digital tools as appropriate
Use informal measurements in the collection and recording of observations
Use informal measurements to collect and record observations, using digital technologies as appropriate
Sort and order data and information and represent patterns, including with provided tables and visual or physical models
Use a range of methods, including drawings and provided tables, to sort information
Describes common forms of energy and explores some characteristics of sound energy
Investigates how forces and energy are used in products
Describes, follows and represents algorithms to solve problems
Identifies the components of digital systems and explores how data is represented
Use a range of methods to sort information, including drawings and provided tables and through discussion, compare observations with predictions
Compare observations with predictions and others’ observations, consider if investigations are fair and identify further questions with guidance
Compare observations and predictions with those of others
Compare observations with those of others
Write and create texts to communicate observations, findings and ideas, using everyday and scientific vocabulary
Represent and communicate observations and ideas about changes in objects and events in a variety of ways
Represent and communicate observations and ideas in a variety of ways
During this activity, students learn about, and compare toys from around the world (including traditional aboriginal toys) with their favour...
