MATERIALS

 Now it is your turn to teach new things to the classroom!!.

In groups, create, and then make a short presentation to the rest of the classroom, a poster about one of the following materials: WOOD, METAL, ROCK and PLASTIC. This must include, at least:

• Where is obtained this material?
• Physical and chemical properties
• Main uses and justify why humans use it for that
• Pictures

All presented in a really nice way, in a big piece of paper and accompained by a 5 min presentation
