3rd Grade Friction Worksheets
Ages 8-9 · Free previews · Print-ready PDFs
Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher
These friction worksheets for 3rd grade show how rubbing surfaces slow moving things. Children compare how far a toy car rolls on ice, carpet and sand, read a test table for smooth wood, bubble wrap and sandpaper ramps, and learn how bike brake pads press on the wheel rim and why wet brakes take longer to stop. Each page explains what makes a test fair and asks children to use the passage or the table as evidence. Three sheets, each with an answer key.
