The children explored the properties of play dough, Floam, gloop, kinetic sand and moon sand. They investigated whether it's shape could be changed by pulling, twisting, rolling, stretching, squashing, squeezing or pinching.** **We made lots of mess and had lots of fun...all in the name of scientific research!** ### Y2 exploring materials
