Year 1 - Material madness

Class: Year 1 Year: 2016 - 2017

As sports day was cancelled due to the rain, Year 1 have had a fun filled day focusing on materials.

We learnt all about where paper came from and how it is made before designing and creating our own. We can not wait to see what it looks like once it has dried.

In the afternoon, we focused on using scientific vocabulary to describe the properties of different materials. 

I wonder whether they can remember what our new words (transparent, opaque and absorbent) mean at home?
