Morning Circle:
Students will cross a bridge made of
wooden plank
Presentation:
Effect of force in a solid objects
State Hookes Law and and use the
expression F =k x, where k is the spring
constant
Biography of Hooke

limit of
proportionality for an extension-load
graph
Activity:
To show the effect of force on solid
objects, the following demonstrations
will be done:
(presentation)

future construction)
Day 2
Circle: Students do Yoga
Recall Previously:
Compression and tension
Recognise that a force may
produce a change in size and
shape of a body
Presentation:
