SCIENCE
GRADE FIVE
Force Poster Project
You have learn’t about forces. In order to show what you have learned, I would like for you to
create a poster that explains the concept of forces. Draw a diagram of a vehicle in motion
(bicycle, motorcycle, and car) and label all of the forces which act on it. There are no limits to
the project; you can use anything you like! This will be a test grade, so make sure to do your
best. I encourage you to be creative and show what you have learned. There are some basic rules
for your project:
You must outline what force is!
Show the different actions done to carry out force.
Show when work is been done or not been done.
Show the different types of force learnt about.
You may use anything you like to do the project. Different colour cartridge papers etc.
A rubric is attached to help you and your parents figure out what project will deserve an “A”.
It is your responsibility to keep up with the rubric to receive your final grade. Do your best
on your model.
THIS PROJECT IS DUE March 12th!
