Sorting and grouping materials.

We have been looking at the properties of materials and today we tried sorting and grouping them using different categories.
We used a Venn diagram and some of the properties we know, to sort the pictures of materials.

The fabrics were quite difficult to sort into categories.

There were a few different ways to sort the rock collection.

The mixed materials caused most debate and variety of suggestions for categories.

  1. I think the Venn diagram is an excellent way of displaying your findings. I bet some things proved more challenging than others, as to which category they belonged to. Caroline (Louise's mum)
