Study Notes
Materials
- Materials are used to make things around us
- Different materials come from plants, the earth, and animals, or are man-made
- Seven main material classes: wood, rock, metal, plastic, rubber, glass, fiber
Wood
- Comes from trees
- Hard
- Used for houses, furniture, paper, and boxes
Rock
- From the Earth's crust
- Hard and strong
- Includes stone, clay, and sand
Metal
- From the Earth's crust
- Hard, strong, and shiny
- Can be shaped and bent
Plastic
- Made from petroleum
- Light, flexible, tough, and can be brittle
- Used for kitchenware and electrical appliances
Rubber
- Obtained from rubber trees
- Elastic and soft
- Cannot withstand heat
- Used for tires, erasers, and balls
Glass
- Obtained by heating sand and limestone
- Transparent
- Breaks easily
- Used as windowpanes, glass bottles, and light bulbs
Fiber
- Comes from cotton, jute, wool, and silk
- Used for clothes, carpets, canvas, curtains, ropes, and school bags
Types of Materials
- Natural materials: found naturally (e.g., logs, sand, rocks)
- Man-made materials: made from natural materials (e.g., glass, plastic, paper, nylon)
- Flexible materials: can be stretched, bent, twisted (e.g., erasers, rubber bands, gloves)
Material Changes
- Heat can cause changes in materials
- Temporary/Physical Change: the material changes state (solid, liquid, gas) but can go back (e.g., ice melting)
- Permanent/Chemical Change: the material changes into a new material and cannot go back (e.g., wood burning)
Forces
- A force can make things move or stop moving things
- Simplest forces are push and pull
- Forces can be large or small
- Examples of forces: pushing, pulling, lifting, stretching, twisting, squeezing, pressing, bending
- Forces can:
- Start an object moving
- Speed up a moving object
- Change the direction of a moving object
- Slow down a moving object
- Change the shape of an object
- Change the size of an object
- Rotate an object
- Stop a moving object
Types of Force
- Muscular Force: force produced by muscles (people or animals)
- Electric Force: force produced by rubbing (e.g., comb on hair attracting paper)
- Magnetic Force: force used by a magnet to attract certain materials (e.g., iron nails)
Plants
- Plants are living things needing air, water, food, and light
- Many kinds of plants, some big, some small
- Plant types: shrubs, herbs, creepers, trees
- Plants grow in different places – land, water, even on buildings
- Plant groupings: flowering plants (bear flowers, most fruits & veggies) and non-flowering plants
- Plant parts and functions:
- Roots: absorb water and minerals
- Stem: transports water and minerals
- Branches: support flowers and fruits
- Leaves: make food through sunlight
- Flowers: produce new young plants
- Fruits: have seeds, protect seeds, seeds grow into new plants
Animals
- Animals are grouped: by features, food, movement
- Vertebrates: animals with a backbone (e.g., fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals)
- Invertebrates: animals without a backbone (e.g., worms, spiders, insects)
- Animal food groups: carnivores (meat), herbivores (plants), omnivores (both), insectivores (insects)
- Animal movement: legs (running, crawling, climbing), wings (flying), fins (swimming), bodies (crawling, creeping), arms and legs (climbing, swinging, walking, running)
- Food chains: show how living things get food & energy flows from one to another, starting with plants and ending with animals
- Predator: an animal that hunts other animals for food
- Prey: an animal that is hunted by a predator for food
