Monday: Objects and materials

Rocket tips his invention box onto the rug.

Out tumble a spoon, a sock, a cup and a wooden block.

"I want to build a helper," Rocket says. "But what is all this stuff?"

Raven picks up the spoon. "What do you notice?" she asks.

Nova hums. "Here is a hint. Ask what each thing is made of."

Object or material?

An object is a thing, like a spoon or a sock.
