In the Wood/Paper unit, students are introduced to a wide variety of woods and papers in a systematic way. They will observe the properties of these materials and discover what happens when they are subjected to a number of tests and interactions with other materials. They learn that wood and paper can be recycled to create new forms of paper or wood that have new properties.
