Force and Motion

Today we started to learn about Force and Motion.  Ms. Leech gave us each a wooden block and gave us the task of finding different ways to move the block. Then we had to record our favourite way on our blog. She gave us a bucket of materials to experiment with such as tape, straws, sticks, elastics, tongs, and paper. She then gave us an iPad to record our learning on. We all had very different ideas how to move the block. We used rulers, we dropped it, we twisted it on a stick, we made a parachute for it.  We then used the iPads to record our learning. Some of us videotaped the blocks in motion, and some of us used the apps Draw and Tell and Skitch. We then uploaded our work to our blogs. 
Have you tried moving a block before? What is your favourite way?
