Year 1 Science: Everyday Materials: Objects and Materials

This Year 1 science resource helps children to distinguish between objects and the materials from which they are made. Children will learn useful topic-related words, be posed interesting questions (Think-lets), follow highly structured teaching slides (Teach-lets) about objects and materials and have their scientific knowledge and understanding assessed throughout (Quiz-lets).

This resource provides 3 increasingly difficult and differentiated challenges. The easier challenge asks children to guess and label everyday objects using photos and clues, the moderate challenge asks children to label everyday objects with the materials from which they are made, and the harder challenge asks children to identify objects and label the material from which they are made. All useful words, visual image prompts, sentence starters and answers are provided. Useful words are only provided for children requiring additional support in the independent tasks.

‘Everyday Materials - Objects and Materials’ can be explored through this exciting, engaging and original resource. It will give you the tools to teach with focus and confidence, knowing your pupils will successfully develop essential scientific knowledge and skills.
