Y1 Science: Grouping Materials

5th Mar 2023

The children worked hard, in pairs, to sort and group different objects. 

They set their own criteria for grouping, with some using the materials to determine the groups, for example:

  • glass/not glass
  • fabric/wood

Others decided to focus on the properties of the materials, for example:

  • flexible/rigid
  • hard/soft
  • transparent/opaque
