Teaching ideas with spinning tops

Teach about gyroscopes! A rotating object will remain rotating at the same angle until friction slows them down. This is due to rotational inertia. As the top slows down, you’ll see it wobble due to a?change in the orientation of the rotational axis of the rotating top (also called precession).
Have students time each other’s spinning top. who can make the top spin the longest? What is the average spin time across your class?
Compare this small top with the Space Wonder Gyroscope by Navir!
Have students list and describe the 3 Laws of Motion.
Investigate forces using our free science experiments?on movement

-Early learning teachers – Melbourne District

” I didn’t get to say thank you to the teacher who did the incursion, could you please say thank you on my behalf and that he did a great job on showing us the experiments. He explained everything really clearly and I have learnt a lot”. “I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed the science incursion. I was wondering if you could tell him that he did a great job”.
