Which material is the strongest to build a house?

Lesson: Science

Class: Mrs Murphy- 2M Year: 2016 - 2017

Our Science topic this half term has been 'materials. The children have shown a great understanding of the different properties of materials and why they are suitable for different objects.

After reading the story of 'The Three Little Pigs' the children took part in an experient to see which material would make the best house for the pigs. The children split into groups and made houses from paper, wooden sticks, sticks, tinfoil and lego. The children worked wonderfully in their teams to create their houses. It was a shame we had to destroy them in the testing of our experient.

I will let the children explain the results of the experiment to you....
