This half term’s topic is based around the theme ‘Muck, Mess and Mixtures’. The children in class 7 have started their Science work and their focus is around materials and their properties. The year 1 and year 2 children have learnt about a range of materials and they loved working together to touch, hold and sort a range of different objects made out of materials such as metal, plastic, wood and fabric. We discussed the properties of these materials such as fabrics being absorbent, wood being hard, metal being shiny and plastic being flexible. The children have learnt a lot of new vocabulary and you can see from the smiles on their faces how much they enjoyed this interactive lesson!
