 Discussing new concepts and practicing new skills #1
Let pupils answer the following questions based on the activity that they did:
How do the materials become useful?
-Materials are said to be useful when they serve their purpose and good for
the environment. These may have properties such as durability, flexibility,
elasticity, hardness and resistance to water, heat, or acid. Most of the useful
materials can be recycled and reused.
How do the materials become harmful?
-Materials are said to be harmful when they caused harm and hazardous in our
environment. For example, a broken glass window can cause cuts or injury. Toxic
substance may also be present in the things you commonly use such as paints,
cleaners, fumes, gels, or powder. These materials may bring harm to your health
and environment when not used properly. .
