Pupils needing extra support

Should use the Activity: Sorting cards for the independent task, cutting, sticking and labelling three images that show the same objects and three images that are made from the same materials; could group and label everyday objects according to the materials they are made from (e.g. wood and plastic).

Pupils working at greater depth

Could use the Activity: Sorting cards to stick images in their books and suggest materials that would not be suitable for the objects’ use and explain why (e.g. a fabric coat hanger would not hold clothes, a glass toy would break; could draw their own additional examples like a leather chair or a metal spoon in the independent task.
