In an investigation, change only one factor at a time when possible. That makes it easier to see what really caused the result.

Read and think

Open one card at a time, read the text together, and use the audio button when hearing the line once helps.

A push can start movement, and a pull can change direction.

force basics

Forces act by pushing or pulling objects.

Example: Pushes and pulls are forces.

Read and think Text card

Friction slows a moving object when two surfaces rub against each other.

friction

A rough surface usually creates more friction than a smooth one.

Example: Friction affects motion.

Read and think Text card

If you test paper planes, use the same paper and same throw each time.

fair test

Only one variable should change if you want useful evidence.

Example: Fair tests control the variables.

Read and think Text card

Conclusion: Evidence from repeated trials is stronger than one lucky result.

science reasoning

Reliable testing needs more than one attempt.

Example: Repeated trials improve trust in results.
