This learning resource focuses on identifying and understanding natural materials, specifically timber and cotton, and their applications in the kitchen. The objective is to recognize timber as a natural material, explore its properties, and explain how these properties meet user needs in kitchen settings, such as with a wooden chopping board.

Students are encouraged to observe, write structured responses, and draw to reinforce their learning about these materials.
