Materials and their Properties

 

In term 3 we will be building on our learning from year 1, all about materials and their properties. We will be considering why materials have been chosen for certain jobs and why they suitable or unsuitable. For example, how suitable would cardboard be for making an umbrella?

 

Our enquiry questions this term are:

 

  • What do we know about every day materials?

  • Which material is best?

  • How well do different materials bounce?

  • Can solid objects change shape?

  • Which fabric is the stretchiest?
