Read the example of a setting description

 

Although the island couldn't have been more than half a mile wide, the sea had disappeared from view, lost behind a seemingly impenetrable screen of vegetation. Here the atmosphere was damp and heavy, and I could hear thousands of insects already active among the leaves.

 

From the air, the bay looked as ridiculously beautiful as every Caribbean island, the colours almost too intense to be true. There was the dazzling blue of the ocean, the immaculate white beaches, the rich, elemental green of the pine trees and rain forest.

Science

LO: To identify why a material is used for specific purposes

  1. Refresh your scientific vocabulary by working your way through the vocabulary sheet. (you may need to rotate the document)
  2. Open the Lesson Slides and read it carefully, noting down why the properties of the materials make them useful for the jobs they do.
  3. Open the Picnic sheet and read the instructions on the first page.
  4. Follow the instructions on the sheet to do the 'this vs that' activity and the 'picnic recommendations' activity using the pictures and the writing tamplate.
  5. Don't worry if you can't print - you can write and draw your ideas and answers on paper, instead.
