wood doesn't melt on heating because while heating the compound required to change that substance into liquid gets evaporated quickly when we start heating.

Heating a wood splinter will lead to combustion, resulting in the release of smoke, ash, and gases due to the breakdown of the organic material.

Glass may also soften or melt depending on the temperature, but it will not produce combustion byproducts like wood.
