Kindergarten Science · World 4: What's It Made Of? · Level 20
Materials
Name clay, cloth, plastic, wood, paper, and metal.
Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. About 15 minutes.
What children learn in Level 20
- Everything is made of something. What it's made of is called its material.
- Wood comes from trees. It's hard and strong. Metal is hard and often shiny, like a key.
- Paper is thin and tears easily. Cloth is soft and bendy, like your shirt.
- Plastic can be made into almost any shape. Clay is squishy when it's wet, and hard after it's baked, like a brick.
- Try it with a grown-up! Find something made of wood, metal, paper, cloth, plastic, and clay at home.
Georgia Standards of Excellence in Science:
- SKP1.a — Ask questions to compare and sort objects made of different materials. (Common materials include clay, cloth, plastic, wood, paper, and metal.)
