Everyday objects around us are made of different things. We call these different materials.
Materials can be grouped into different categories - fabric, wood, ceramic, plastic, rubber, paper, brick, rock, glass, metal and leather are some examples.
Sometimes, the same objects can be made from different materials.
plastic cup | glass cup | paper cup |
These cups are all made from different materials, but they are all cups!
Let's practise choosing different materials for the same objects.
