Objects can be classified into groups like plastic, metal, glass, and paper. Each material’s properties, such as durability or flexibility, relate to its function—plastics are used for containers, metals for tools and glass for windows.
Collect 20–30 objects from your household and classify them based on the properties of the materials they are made up of. Were you able to put them in separate groups? What relationship do you see between the properties of the materials and the use of the objects?

After classifying 20–30 household objects by material, I grouped them into categories such as plastic, metal, glass, and paper. The properties of these materials align with their uses: plastics are flexible and used for containers, metals are strong for tools and appliances, glass is transparent for windows and containers, and paper is lightweight for packaging and documents. The material’s properties influence its application, ensuring the object’s functionality and durability in everyday use.
