Award-winning video and lesson investigations for young children on the topic of control

Product Description

Video and lesson investigations on the topic of control . Key concepts include:

  • It is important to get things in the right place. We need to be able to control the movement of things to do this.
  • Some control levers are connected to motors which can lift or lower, or move from side to side.
  • There are many different types of control, but all of them cause something to change when they are manipulated.
  • Machines are not of much use to us unless they can be controlled in direction and speed.
  • The simplest machines are controlled by hand (screwdrivers and hammers, for example). As machines become more complicated, their controls become correspondingly more complex.
