 NATURAL MATERIALS

WOOD METAL ROCK RUBBER

  COMES FROM TREES

 FLOAT ON WATER

 EG:FURNITURE AND PAPER

  70 TYPES OF METALS

 HARD ,STRONG ,SHINY

AND SOME FLEXIBLE

 EG: COPPER,ALLUMINIUM,
IRON,GOLD AND SILVER
 SOIL ORIGINATES FROM ROCKS
WHEN THE ROCKS ARE BROKEN

 EG: VASE AND BRICK

  FROM THE LATEX OF
THE RUBBER TREE

 SOFT AND WEAK

 GOOD INSULATOR OF HEAT

 EG : ERASER,SOLES OF SHOES

Reason:
Use a metal and a glass to make a pair of glasses
because a metal is hard and strong when a glass
properties is transparent.
