# Investigating Materials

Year 1 have been learning about materias and their properties.

Today we investigated some objects to see if they had certain properties and sorted them.

We looked for absorbancy, transparency, hardness, how bendy they were and how stretchy.

The children could explain why different objects had different properties and whether they were useful or not.
