What’s is made of? Bags at Home worksheet

Read through the ‘Bags at Home’ worksheet. Draw a picture of each of the 4 bags you have found at home and write which material you think the bags are made of. What does your family use each bag for?

Cut out the pictures of the Earth, the Sun and the Moon on your given sheet. Paste those pictures onto the A3 poster paper and create a labelled illustration of how the Earth, Sun and Moon move amongst our solar system to create Night & Day on either sides of our planet.

Mould! Gross. Read through the written text about our topic ‘Mould’. Then choose words from the text to add to your own Word Search (on the reverse side of sheet).

Anton van Leewenhoek (1632-1723) was born over 350 years ago in Holland. He wasn’t a scientist but had a hobby that allowed him to see a world that no one had seen before him.

Read about how Anton van Leewenhoek created and used the first Microscope (report included in your take home pack) then get creative!

On the opposite side of the Scientific report draw a detailed picture of any object you can imagine placed under a microscope.

Prep -2 Science Remote Learning Task

 Week 5 – Silly Stories!

‘Yesterday, I was returning to my Jelly office in my car made from marshmallows when I realised I had left my wooden keys on the chocolate bench on top of my favourite Metal book’

Excuse me?

Yes, that’s right all the materials in my short story have changed!

Imagine if we had different materials for our items we use every day.

‘It was the morning of my Birthday and I jumped out of my plastic bed and onto the ice floor. I couldn’t wait to unwrap my presents, I had asked my mum for a new water bike.

Wha?? A bike made of liquid?

Well, Year Prep, 1 & 2. Now it’s your turn to write your own Silly Story, changing all the materials the items in your story are made of to make it UNBELIEVABLE!

*Preps – If you can’t right the whole story down, record it on your phone as a quick video and send it to Mr. A at;

davea@woodfordps.vic.edu.au

Year 1 & 2 have fun creating your crazy new world writing your Silly stories!

Science Year 3 & 4

Remote Learning Task – Week 5

Day and Night – Science Poster

This week’s Year 3 & 4 Remote Learning Science Lesson asks the students to place the things they listed as Night & Day items in their T-Chart form Week 4 into a Science poster.

Dividing their A3 poster paper in half (landscape) they are to draw some of the items they included in their Day side of their chart on the lighter side of the page,

Then draw some of the items they included in their Night side of their chart on the darker side.

Include the headings Day & Night and remember to use Dark colours throughout your Night drawing so as your items and creatures look like they are in the dark – then lighten up your Day side with bright and vibrant colours!

Have fun and remember you are welcome to send photos of your posters to Mr.A at;

What’s It Made of ? WORD WALL POSTER

We use so many different materials around the house every day? What are they made of? What do they feel like to touch?

This week in Science we are making a poster and collecting things around the house which belong to each one of the categories listed below.

Collect your items under each heading, stick them on your poster or simply sit them on the sheet and take a photo of your completed collection.

Students can now send your completed Science work photos directly to Mr.A at the following address

davea@woodfordps.vic.edu.au

Words for your A3 Poster (color sheet provided)

WOOD, PAPER, GLASS, METAL, SOFT, HARD, WOOL, PLASTIC, LIGHT, HEAVY, SMOOTH, ROUGH.

Happy Collecting!

Year 3/4’s – Let’s collect all the facts we think we know about Night & Day!

Are Owls really only active at night? Where do foxes go during the day? Why is the moon bright at night?

There are so many things we can wonder about which are right in front of us each day, and even more questions hidden in the dark of night.

Can you help sort out some facts?

Create a T chart on the back of this sheet.

On one side, under the heading Night – write down at least 10 facts you think you know about Night.

On the other side of the page, under the heading Day – write down at least 10 facts you know about Day.

Think you can write more than 10 facts for each? Go for it, you just may need another sheet of paper!

Not sure if your fact is correct? Write it down anyway – you can ask mum or dad later, or we can discuss it when we get back to school.
