Take a look at the 'Everyday Materials' challenges below.

 

These have lots of different ideas to really challenge if you can think loke a real scientist.

 

Can you answer them all? You could discuss your ideas with an adult or you could even write your ideas down.

 

 

 

 

Science - Silly Materials

 

Some materials are not suitable for certain items.

 

For example, why can't wellies and a hammer be made from glass, can a teapot be made from paper?  Can an umbrella be made from wood? Can a window be made from paper? Can clothes be made from metal? 

 

Can you think of any other silly items that would be made from the wrong material?

 

How many can you think of?

 

When you've finished have a look at the Alien description sheet to see if you can descrive some different materials.

 

 

Art

 

Did you know you can make patterns using fruit and vegetables.

 

Have a look at the picture and the link below. Can you make your own 'fruity' pattern.

 

If you don't have any paints at home you could use food colouring.

Write out all of the letters of the alphabet.

 

How many fruits/vegetables can you think of starting with the different letters of the alphabet?
