Abstract: | A national curriculum comprising statements of attainment at different levels must be underpinned by some idea of “progression”
in learning. Questions arise as to the nature and meaning of progression. To gain a deeper insight into how children progress
in their understanding of science, this research involves the construction and testing of a hypothetical learning sequence
for the topic of forces. This interim report explains how children aged 7 to 13 are being interviewed to explore their explanations
of phenomena involving forces. These explanations will be mapped onto the sequence to provide a multi-dimensional model of
progression.
