Class 1 have been working hard this term in science finding out about different materials.  Their task this week was to use their knowledge to talk about what materials would make a good shelter for Pebbles (our class penguin!).  They decided that it needed to be waterproof so they planned an investigation to test which materials were waterproof or not.  They also discussed how they would test a material to check it was waterproof, what will happen to the water as they tested it, what equipment they would need and how they would make it a fair test.  The materials they decided to test were wood, tin foil, paper, card, plastic and cotton.  They found out that wood, plastic and tin foil were the most waterproof.

Well done Class 1!
