Learning Community

Junior School

In Grade 1/2, we've been diving into the world of forces, specifically push and pull. Push and pull are basic forces that affect how things move. Our students are excited to learn about them and how they work in everyday life. 

In class, we've been completing investigations to further explore the concept of push and pull. One challenge was making toy cars move without touching them. Students found clever ways such as using straws to blow air or knocking the cars with dominoes. We also made boats from classroom materials to see if they can float. It was a blast watching them experiment and learn about how water can push objects up. 

By letting students explore, they not only understand science but also develop skills like problem-solving and teamwork.
