Science

LO: To compare and group together everyday materials on the basis of their properties

  • There are two parts to this lesson, so you may choose to complete each part at different times or days.
  • You may find printing the cards and worksheet easier however you don't really need printed sheets to complete the activities.  The cards can be read from the screen and you can write your answers in your book...maybe an adult can help you draw the 'Carroll Diagram' ?

 

Part 1

  1. Open the Materials Lesson Slides.
  2. Click through the slides, reading them carefully, writing down the answers to any questions asked.  
  3. Make sure you copy down important scientific vocabulary and that you know what it means.

Part 2

  1. Open the materials cards and read them carefully.
  2. The words (adjectives) describe the materials. We call these, the material's 'properties'.
  3. If you have any of those materials in your homes, go and feel them and see if you can observe those properties for yourself.  
  4. Discuss or think about  what the vocabulary on each card means while you are feeling the materials.
  5. Next, open the Materials worksheet.
  6. You need to use the information on the cards, to sort out which boxes on the 'Carroll Diagram' the materials need to be put in.
  7. Then, answer the questions at the bottom.
  8. Mark your work using the answer sheet.
  9. Bring in your work when you return, so that we can glue it in your science book.
