What Was It?

Sometimes the physical properties of an object or a material can change so much that you can hardly recognize it. Processes that cause such change include heating, freezing, tearing, burning, and grinding. The pictures below show two groups of materials. Picture A shows several objects or materials in their familiar form. Picture B shows the same objects or materials in a different form or state.

Make a display of three different objects or materials in their unusual form or state. Use pictures or actual objects for your display. You may choose from the suggestions below or use ideas of your own.
