In Year 5, our Science topic is FORCES! We have been thinking about the effect gravity has on different objects…

Today we measured the mass and weight of different objects around the classroom using Newton Metres. For some objects we had to place them inside a bag so that they could be held safely. This caused some of us to question “but what about the weight/mass of the bag?” We had lots of scientific questions but we made a whole class agreement to ignore the weight/mass of the bag in this experiment.
