  1. Year 7 ILA Homework Properties of Materials and Recycling

  2. Homework Objective 1 To be able to identify standard recycling symbols GUIDANCE/SUPPORT for homework 1 Recycle Recycling means that you take the material used for a part, break it down or melt it and use it to make a new part. Recycling can be carried out for metals and many different types of wood, plastics, card and paper. It is easiest to recycle products that are made from only one material. Unfortunately, many products are made up of lots of different parts and materials, which means that they need to be taken apart to allow recycling. As a result, it can sometimes cost more to recycle than it would to make new material.

  3. Homework Task 1 - Identify the standard recycling symbols shown below from 1 to 6 Products containing materials that can be recycled are often marked to show the material that they are made from. 1 2 3 4 6 5 Recycling Images courtesy of : http://www.recyclenow.com/why_recycling_matters/recycling_symbols.html http://www.warwickshire.gov.uk/web/corporate/pages.nsf/Links/513B04AAB66E868B80256EBD00338A6E Extension Get photographic evidence of SIX plastics products that each have the ONE of the SIX different numbers in the recycling triangle (i.e. Numbers 1 to 6) to

  4. Homework Objective 2 To be able to analyse an existing products in detail. Homework Task 2 – Product Analysis • Choose an existing product made from wood and metal or plastic and metal, then analyse each part of the product by answering the following questions: • What is the function of the product? • What is the function of each part of the product? • What is the properties of each material ? • Note • The product must have minimum of THREE different types of materials • You can use the sheet of A4 provided • TIPS • Be selective and only use relevant information in your analysis • Avoid simple descriptions in your analysis

  5. Products Analysis Homework Task 2 – Product Analysis Objective: To be able to analyse an existing products in detail. • Task: • Choose an existing product made from wood and metal or plastic and metal, then analyse each part of the product by answering the following questions. • What is the function of the product? • What is the function of each part of the product? • What is the properties of each material ? • The product must have minimum of THREE different types of materials • Be selective and only use relevant information in your analysis • Avoid simple descriptions in your analysis Product 1

  6. GUIDANCE/SUPPORT for homework 2 Properties of materials Different materials have different properties. This means that each material might perform differently when tested or used in the same way. When you are designing a product, you need to choose a material that has the properties needed by your product.

  7. GUIDANCE/SUPPORT for homework 2 Properties of materials Some of the questions that you may ask and some of the material properties that you might find related to materials are shown in the table below.

  8. Products Analysis Here is an examples of product analysis Product: Stainless Hand Trowel Objective: To be able to analyse an existing products in detail. Function of Trowel: Digging and planting Wooden Handel Stain steel Metal ring • Task: • Choose an existing product made from wood and metal or plastic and metal, then analyse each part of the product by answering the following questions: • What is the function of the product? • What is the function of each part of the product? • What is the properties of each material ? • You can use the sheet of A4 provided • TIPS • Avoid simply describing the obvious things about existing products; try to show that you are making judgements.
