Partnership working
Although the Think Physics project is led by Northumbria University, it is a partnership between 10 different organisations.
This afternoon, I had the pleasure of spending time supporting teachers from one of our partners, North Tyneside Learning Trust. I was leading a session for primary school teachers about levers, pulleys and gears – which are in the new National Curriculum.
We sorted household objects, created three sorts of catapults, and played with pulleys. I suspect that I may have lost at least one pingpong ball in the classroom!
The materials from the session are available in here.
