In Science class this week we experimented with friction or lack of friction ! We all completed the tablecloth trick and did very well. We used tins, plastic bottles , large potatoes and spoons so nothing would get broken if it went wrong. Some of us managed to pull the cloth and leave the bottle standing . We tested different weights by using a large and small spoon. The final challenge was to pull the cloth from under everything. We all managed to do it. Archie, Ben and Dylan pulled the cloth and nothing moved – well done lads. We learned that the faster pull means less friction and the cloth moves smoothly from under everything and nothing falls.
