We are learning all about different materials and their properties. The children are enjoying investigating the materials and finding out their properties.

After we sorted our materials. We took four materials: paper, foil, fabric and plastic. We wanted to test if they were absorbent or not. The children first predicted what they thought and then they tested the materials by putting them in water to see if they got wet or not. Were they absorbent or waterproof?
