SMCS/LOCAL ISSUES
(P4C/RP/British Modern Values):
*democracy *the rule of law *individual liberty *mutual
respect for and tolerance of those with different faiths
and beliefs and for those without faith

SCIENCE:
Forces and Magnets
Compare how things move on different surfaces –
Ramps of various textures, testing with cars.
Notice that some forces need contact between
two objects, but magnetic forces can act at a
distance.
Observe how magnets attract or repel each other
and attract some materials and not others.
Compare and group together a variety of everyday
materials on the basis of whether they are
attracted to a magnet, and identify some
magnetic materials.
Describe magnets as having two poles.
Predict whether two magnets will attract or repel
each other, depending on which poles are facing.
