Hedgehogs have been working super hard in their science topic ‘Uses of Materials’. Over the last couple of weeks, Year Two have been exploring different materials and why they are made of a particular property. We found out that some materials are absorbent, waterproof, hard, smooth, transparent… the list goes on. So, this week, we completed a very exciting science experiment where we tested paper to explore the different properties. Who knew paper could be so exciting? The lab coats and goggles were out and the class transformed into scientists. Hedgehogs experimented with paper, cardboard, tissue paper and paper towels. We tested to see how strong the paper was, the texture and how absorbent it was. The results were very interesting and Year Two were great at explaining which paper is best for each job. Well done Hedgehogs!
