Materials

In science we have been learning about a range of materials and their properties. This week we worked in groups to build houses for the three little pigs. We made houses from plastic bricks, wooden bricks, paper, cardboard and plastic bags. Before we carried out our investigation we had to predict which of the houses would stay standing after the wolf had 'huffed and puffed'. Our wolf was actually a carefully disguised hair dryer. We found that the house built of plastic bricks was the strongest because the wolf could not blow it down. Can you remember what happened to our paper houses? Look at our fantastic houses! Well done Year Two.
