Let’s do this!
Objective: Describe what happens to the
solid materials when they bent and press.

What you Need:

What to Do:
1.Bend the paper clip and metal spoon.
2.Press the banana and plastic cup.
3.Copy the table below and record your observations.
Material What happened to the
materials when bent and
press?
1. Paper clip
2. Metal spoon
3. Banana
4. Plastic cup
 Solid materials can be
bent. When bent, these
materials may change
their size and shape. No
new materials is formed.
Only the physical of the
materials is changed.
 Solid materials can be
pressed. When pressed,
these materials may change
their size and shape. Other
changed their texture when
pressed. No new materials
is formed. Only the physical
of the materials is changed.
 Let’s Try!
Name the following pictures. Identify if the following
materials can be bent or press. 3.

1. 2.

4.
5.
Let’s Answer.
Write True if the following statement is correct
and False if not.
1. Clay can be press.
2. When bent, materials change their size.
3. When pressed, only physical appearance
changed.
4. Metal spoon can be bent.
5. No new materials is formed when bent.
Remember These:

Solid materials can be pressed and bent. When bent

and pressed, the materials may change their shape
and size. However, no new material is formed
because only the physical appearance of the
material is changed.
Assignment
Draw 3 examples of materials
can be bent and press in your
notebook.
