A Knowledge organiser that captures the essential knowledge and skills learnt throughout the unit Science, Year 3, Forces and space: Forces and magnets.

This resource is designed to support the children as they explore forces and magnets. It highlights key vocabulary and concepts, including how forces can push, pull and change the movement or shape of objects. The resource explains friction as a contact force, how it affects motion and when it can be useful or problematic. It also introduces non-contact forces, such as magnetism and gravity, and explores how magnets attract or repel objects. It is perfect for consolidating essential knowledge and fostering an understanding of how forces and magnets interact in the world around us.
