Write a description of your alien.  Think about the following questions:

Science

1 hour

L.O: To explore pushes, pulls and twists.

1. Create a slope – you could use a chopping board or something similar and lean it against different things around your home.  Use a ball, toy car or tin and roll it down your slope.  Does the steepness or length of the slope affect how far your object will roll? When did it roll the furthest? Record your results in your book.
2. Gather different materials from around your home – paper, elastic band, playdough, sponge. Are you able to push, pull, twist or bend these objects?  Do they change shape? Do they return to their original shape when you stop the force? Use the attached sheet to help you record your results if you are able to.  Or you could just write down or draw what happens in your home learning book.
