What’s included in the Year 3 Forces and Magnets 5-Minute Science resource and why is it useful?

Year 3 Forces and Magnets 5-Minute Science is a set of three revision worksheets covering the whole topic of forces and magnets. These have been designed to give your children up to three opportunities to engage in deliberate practice outside of the teaching of the topic. This resource covers pushes and pulls, how things move on different surfaces, friction and where it helps or hinders, which materials a magnet attracts, magnetic force acting at a distance, and predicting whether two magnets will attract or repel from the poles facing each other.

How do our 5 Minute Science resources work?

As these resources are designed for re-cap and revision, you could use 5 Minute Science resources during the topic for early morning work, towards the end of the topic or even later in the year as a re-cap. The content across the three worksheets covers the national curriculum objectives for forces and magnets year 3 science.

Each unit in the science curriculum has been covered in the 5 Minute Science range.
