    Materials from Nonliving Things

    All metals like iron, gold, silver, diamond

    Chalk, clay, coal, and sand

    Properties of Materials:

    Materials may be soft, hard, flexible (bendable), rigid (stiff), transparent (see-
    through), opaque (meaning light does not shine through it), rough, smooth,
    shiny, or dull.

    Soft/Hard: Metals are hard. Cotton and sponge are soft.

    Flexible/Rigid: Flexible material can bend easily without breaking.


    Rigid material does not bend.
    Transparent/Opaque

    1. Opaque
