This term Wren and Woodpecker class have had fun learning about materials.  We have looked at a range of different materials and identified their properties.

We helped Discovery dog to find the best material to clear up a puddle.  We investigated to find out which materials were waterproof and absorbant. 

 Materials Findings

We read the story of The Three Little Pigs.  We found out what materials they used to build their homes.  We then created our own stories thinking of different materials they could have used.  We then made a story plan and wrote our own story.
