May the force be with 6S

6S have been learning about forces. 
First some theory and a bit of History with Isaac Newton. 
Then use the force meters to find out how much force it takes to..... open a door
or a cupboard 
Pick up a poly block
or pull a tray
choose the correct newtonmeter 
check the scale
Try another object 
How much force to move the bin
All busy. Then try the forces circus
Forces involved in floating
Or in draging a block along 
Looking at surface tension
And impact forces
Tension in springs
Magnetism
And bending a stream of water with static electric forces.
