Materials

Children will be taught to:

● identify and compare the suitability of a variety of everyday materials, including wood, metal, plastic, glass, brick, rock, paper and cardboard for particular uses;

● find out how the shapes of solid objects made from some materials can be changed by squashing, bending, twisting and stretching Forces -Friction

Children will be taught to:

● observe the effects of friction and explain how it might work;

● observe the effects of air resistance and explain how it works;

● explain, in simple terms, what a force is

Forces - Floating (Bouyancy)

● predict which objects will float in water;

● explore which materials will float in water;

● explore ‘density’ using the concept of ‘heavier than’ or ‘lighter than’ the material it object is in;

● observe and explain floating and sinking of ‘ non water’ examples hot air balloons, helium, smoke rising, etc.

LivingThings and Habitats
