Materials Around Us

Foundation Science — Materials Around Us: explore wood, plastic, metal, glass, paper, fabric, and rubber. Young learners identify what everyday objects are made of and start to compare properties such as hard, soft, stretchy, waterproof, and absorbent. The three difficulty levels (Easy, Medium, Hard) help children choose the right material for a job, like metal for a saucepan or wool for a warm jumper. Take the Materials Around Us quiz and try sorting objects by what they are made of. Noble Educators tutors can guide your child through hands-on material investigations.
