A dominoes game with questions and statements on forces and weight and mass instead of numbers.

Prior Knowledge

Understand a force to be a pull or a push measured in Newtons (N).
Examples of contact and non- contact forces.
Forces change the speed, direction or shape of an object.
All objects attract other objects and the bigger the object the bugger the attraction.
The Earth’s attraction is called gravity which acts towards its centre and keeps its atmosphere in place and has a value of 10N/Kg.
Mass is the amount of material in a body and is measured in kilograms (Kg).
Gravity acts on a body’s mass and gives it weight which is measured in Newtons (N).
The Moon’s gravity is on-sixth that of Earth and Jupiter is 2.5 times.

Rules of the Game

Each player selects seven dominoes from the top of the face-down pile and holds them in their hand like playing cards.
The player whose surname begins with a letter closest to the letter A starts and play proceed in a clockwise direction.
Dominoes can be matched exactly, or a name can be matched with a symbol or descriptions, sketches and circuit diagrams can be matched.
If a player thinks a match is wrong they can challenge. If the challenger is correct, they give a card from their own hand to the challenged player. If the challenged player is correct, they give a card from their hand to the challenger. Pupils are encouraged to check their books for the correct answer and consult their teacher if a consensus is not reached.
If a player cannot play a domino, they pick up from the face down pile and can play if possible or add it to their hand.
