KS1 Science: Everyday Materials — Deep Revision
Thorough KS1 science revision on materials: naming, properties, a home hunt, suitability reasoning and a simple test. Auto-marked plus open.
KS1 Science: Everyday Materials — Deep Revision is a thorough activity book mapped to the DfE National Curriculum for Years 1 and 2. Sections 1-2 secure fluency with around seventeen auto-marked questions on naming materials, their simple physical properties, their uses, and how shapes can be changed by squashing, bending, twisting and stretching. Sections 3-5 are open, reflective tasks: a real home materials hunt; explaining why materials do or do not suit a particular use; and describing a simple, fair test to compare material properties. A full worked answer key, including model answers and marking notes for the open sections, is included alongside teacher, parent and pupil guidance.

This book takes a deep look at everyday materials. Sections 1-2 check your naming and properties knowledge, and I’ll mark those for you straight away. Sections 3-5 are open — a materials hunt around your home, explaining why materials suit a job, and describing your own tests. Write your answers in full sentences so they make sense later. Answer on screen or print the whole book to work through slowly on paper.
This is a thorough KS1 science revision workbook on everyday materials. The first two sections are self-marking naming and properties questions. The last three sections are open-ended — a home materials hunt, suitability reasoning, and describing a simple test — and are best talked through together rather than marked right or wrong. Allow around 45 minutes, in one sitting or split across a few days.
A deep-revision book for DfE KS1 science, Everyday Materials. Sections 1-2 hold around seventeen auto-marked questions on naming materials, describing properties, uses, and changing shape by squashing, bending, twisting and stretching. Sections 3-5 are open, non-auto-marked tasks: a real-world materials hunt, explaining the suitability (and unsuitability) of materials for particular uses, and describing a fair test to compare material properties. Useful as an end-of-unit consolidation or greater-depth reasoning task.
Sections 1-2 are checked together with the "Check my answers" button, which marks every response and gives feedback. Sections 3-5 are open observation, reasoning and writing tasks that are not auto-marked — check them against the model answers and marking notes on the answer sheet.
