Lesson Two – Paper
This science teaching pack for Key Stage Two gets the children to compare and describe different types of paper by their weight, opacity and durability properties when conducting a series of tests.
The class can identify and name different types of papers that can match a range of specific functions such as for wrapping paper or newspapers.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to teach the children to compare and describe different types of paper by their weight, opacity and durability properties when conducting a series of tests
Activities in this teaching pack include a shared reading text to identify and explain how different papers are produced using manufacturing processes and a worksheet to compare different types of papers by testing their weight, opacity and durability.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to compare and describe different types of paper by their weight, opacity and durability properties.
This lesson is part of a science scheme of work to get the children to investigate and test the properties of different types of materials including durability, opacity, strength and conductivity. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
