Look at this spoon. What do you think it is made of?
Today we will hunt around our classroom, touch things gently, and find out what they are made of.
Today's word is material. A material is what something is made of.
Watch and listen while I show you some things. We will say what each one is made of.
It is hunt time! See our sharing tray on the low table. That is where your favourite find will go later.
Walk gently. Touch things carefully. First find something made of wood or plastic. Then we will hunt again for metal, paper or fabric.
Bring your favourite find to our sharing tray. Look closely. Touch it gently.
Tell us: what is it made of? Wood, plastic, metal, paper or fabric?
