everyday materials

2
Lots of things are made
from plastic.
Look at all the
things we‛ve
collected!
3
Don‛t forget your
bracelet. That‛s made
of plastic.
4
Let’s sort these things into two groups.
I‛ll collect the
hard things.
5
I‛ll collect the soft
and bendy things.
6
My plastic toy box is strong and hard.
It stays in the same shape.
I can ll it with
my toys.
7
It‛s too heavy
to lift now!
8
This plastic bag is thin and stretchy.
I can scrunch
it into a ball.
9
The handles are
stretching…
…it feels like
the bag is going
to break.
10
I wonder what
happens when these
toys get wet.
The water runs
off them. They are
waterproof.
11
My plastic raincoat and
umbrella are
waterproof.
They keep
me dry
in the
rain.
Hey, Adam,
look at me!
12
I wonder if
this plastic ball
will oat?
13
Let’s try some other things.
I‛m making a
chart of which toys
oat and which
toys sink.
14
This plastic ball
is very light.
I can throw it
into the air.
15
And when I drop it . . .
…whoops!
. . . it doesn’t break,
it bounces!
16
This Plasticine is soft and bendy.
I can mould it into
lots of different
shapes.
17
Look, I‛ve made
a face!
When I‛ve nished,
I can squash it up and
make something new.
18
We’re making biscuits for tea.
These biscuit
cutters are strong
and sharp.
They cut
through the
mixture easily.
19
How many different shapes can you see?
This looks like
a heart!
20
Look what’s inside our ‘feely’ box.
We’ve got to try and nd the
plastic things.
21
This feels smooth
and squashy. I think it‛s
made of plastic.
22
Time to tidy away.
Look at all these
empty plastic
bottles.
We can
collect them
for recycling.
23
The plastic
can be used
to make new
things.
A sign
on the label shows
that the bottle can
be recycled.
