In a world of materials so diverse,
There are many things that we can observe.
From wood to metal, and stone so strong,
Plastic and diamond, and glass that belongs.

Wood is what makes our homes so cozy,
Metal for cars that go fast and dozy.
Stone for buildings that stand so tall,
Plastic for toys that we love to haul.

Diamonds so shiny, and glass so clear,
The things we wear and see so near.
Each material has its own unique flair,
And every one is precious and rare.

So let's appreciate the world around,
With all the materials that we have found.
From wood to metal, and stone so old,
Plastic and diamond, and glass so bold.

Reflections

1. What are some things made of wood, metal, stone, plastic, diamond, and glass that you can see around you?
2. What makes each material unique and different from the others?
3. Which material do you think is the most valuable, and why?
4. Can you think of any other materials that are not mentioned in the poem, and what are they used for?
5. How do these materials help us in our daily lives, and how would life be different without them?
