•1 pc used paper of any kind
•2 pcs candy wrapper
•1 pc small cardboard any
carton
•2 pcs leaves
•1 pc used cloth of any kind
•1 pair scissors

Guide Questions:
1.Describe what happens to
solid materials when they
are cut.
2.Was there a new material
formed when the solid
material was cut?
 Solid materials can be cut. When
cut, these materials may change their
size and shape, but no new material is
formed. Hence, only the physical
appearance of the solid material is
changed when cut.
 Not all solid materials can be cut
using simple scissors. Some solid
materials, like iron, steel, etc., can be
cut using sophisticated cutters (i.e.
metal cutters/machine cutters).
Cite examples where cutting
of solid materials are applied.
