Materials	Heating and Cooling Materials
	What happens when you heat and cool materials. In this inquiry^(ta)-based lesson plan, students devise a ‘fair way’ to compare (mostly) physical changes in materials such as cheese and chocolate. They ask and answer questions about how to heat the materials and about using materials of the same size and shape. They also predict how substances may change and observe what actually happens. The purpose of the lesson is to both support Year 2 students work on changing materials and to develop their ideas about ‘fair tests’. The activity thus offers an opportunity to assess^(ta) how well students plan a test and observe change.
Materials	The Material World
	Exploring the properties of materials around us. Designed to encourage active learning^(ta), this study module explores the properties of materials from everyday life. It also involves some simple inquiry^(ta) and practical activities using household items.
