Year 5 were given a very important mission, sent by 007 himself. He slipped on his last mission, resulting in the baddies getting away, so needs help to identify which surfaces he should avoid.

The children worked amazingly in teams to investigate how much force was needed to pull a trainer along different surfaces, including carpet, sandpaper, crinkled cardboard, a wooden table and a plastic windowsill.

We found that 007 should avoid smooth surfaces as there would be less friction.
