This term we are looking Under the Microscope for our topic, with the Big Question posed : " what forces influence change'. We looked at making a balancing man -and cat- and trying to balance these on a ruler edge. We could do this by sticking some blu-tack or weight below the centre of gravity . This was after trying to balance ourselves on a wire.

 

 We then had a go looking at centrifugal forces by spinning someone in a chair with arms and legs held in close to the centre and then what happened when we extended them and pulled them back in tight ( we sped up and slowed down). Some of us then got to swing a bucket of water around and around to see what happened ( Yes Jury got a bit wet! )
