Fizzics Education Workshops: Year 4 and Year 1

John Lingard Hall

Year 4: This school science visit is all about design thinking to apply energy changes, momentum, gravity and friction to time-based challenge. Students will learn teamwork, fine motor and planning skills whilst discovering applications of simple machines such as levers, pulleys, wheel and axles and more.

Perfect for applying STEM concepts in a fun environment.
The challenge provides an opportunity for fair testing ideas.
It is all about applying your imagination to re-purpose objects to complete a task.
Opens up discussions on potential vs. kinetic energy and the essential elements of engineering.
In addition, time will be spent ensuring that students understand how contact and non-contact forces affect an object’s motion. Newton would be happy here with this STEM content!

Year 1: This science workshop utilises stations based around push and pull forces, gravity and energy change.
Designed to complement the Physical Phenomena content strand for Early Stage 1 and Stage 1, your students investigate energy and use their senses to discover how the science activities and toys operate.

OPTION: We can concentrate on ‘push and pull forces’ only if required.
A great way to expand your physical phenomena science unit!
