Year 1 Make a Waterproof Raincoat for Georgie

Year 1 - Properties of Materials

Year 1 have been exploring the properties of different materials and have conducted an experiment to find out which material would make the best new raincoat for Georgie, our class teddy. We discussed that rain coats must be waterproof and set out to find out which material was the most waterproof. We tested 5 different materials by dropping 5 pipets of water on top and observing closely to see if any water came through into the cup. We found that the waxed cotton was the most waterproof and that wool was the worst.
