• Compare and group together a variety of everyday materials on the basis of their simple physical properties.
• Science, Year 1, Everyday Materials
• Identify and name a variety of everyday materials, including wood, plastic, glass, metal, water, and rock.
• Science, Year 3, Forces & Magnets
• Compare and group together a variety of everyday materials on the basis of whether they are attracted to a magnet, and identify some magnetic materials.
• Science, Year 5, Properties & Changes of Materials
• Compare and group together everyday materials on the basis of their properties, including their hardness, solubility, transparency, conductivity (electrical and thermal), and response to magnets.
• A set of 20 examples showcasing both magnetic and non-magnetic materials.
• Contained in a chart, this collection supports magnetism teaching, material properties understanding, and leads sorting activities.
• Elevate magnetism lessons with this set of 20 magnetic and non-magnetic material samples. It enables children to hands-on explore, compare various materials, understanding the pull of magnetism practically. An excellent tool for teaching materials' properties, nurturing curiosity.
• This set aligns with Year 3 Science curricula on 'Forces and Magnets', providing tangible evidence of magnetic attraction and repulsion. It also supports Year 1 Science, helping children in identifying and categorising materials based on physical properties. A teaching essential for practical introductions to everyday materials and their distinctions.
Made for classroom durability, this educational set encourages repeated, hands-on scientific investigations. It's an indispensable tool for classrooms, enriching lessons on magnetism, and understanding materials.
• Use to investigate magnetism
• Explore the properties of different types of material samples
• Great for sorting and classification exercises
