Physics is often considered to be a difficult, abstract and boring school subject. This article describes astudy of 11-year old children’s discussions of scientific concepts related to experiments in the classroom and to the Liseberg amusement park. The study was made in May 2004 and the empirical material consists of tape recorded group discussions from the preparation lesson before the amusement park visit. The analysis focuses on how children use, develop and verify their knowledge, and how they express an increased construction of knowledge and understanding through the dialogues. The discussions indicate an ability to develop, explain and exemplify physical phenomena and concepts and connect them to their everyday experiences.
