I am learning to make a repeated print of my illuminated lettering Discuss the process of printing. Model how to create repeated prints and how to carve the design using tools and potatoes Sayers Croft Various Properties and changes of materials 2 3 day residential visit to Sayers Croft Preparatory and follow up work to ensure children gain maximum value from this trip 6 Comparing and grouping of everyday materials/filtering/sieving/dissolving To be decided depending on nature of activities selected for visit 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. Know that some materials will dissolve in liquid to form a solution, and describe how to recover a substance from a solution. Use knowledge of solids, liquids and gases to decide how mixtures might be separated, including through filtering, sieving and evaporating. Give reasons, based on evidence from comparative and fair tests, for the particular uses of everyday materials, including metals, wood and plastic. Demonstrate that dissolving, mixing and changes of state are reversible changes. Explain that some changes result in the formation of new materials, and that this kind of change is not usually reversible, including changes associated with burning and the action of acid on bicarbonate of soda.
