Science
In science, we are learning about materials and their properties.
"I can describe objects in terms of color, size, shape, weight, texture, flexibility, strength and the types of materials in the object."
"I can describe why some materials are better than others for making a particular object and how materials that are better in some ways may be worse in other ways." For example: Objects made of plastic or glass.
