STATES OF WATER
Students identify the various states of water. They use hypothesizing and hands-on experimenting on changing the states of water, the properties of water, and the role of heating and cooling in the changes of state.

It's Just a Phase: Water as Solid, Liquid and Gas
Students construct models of the way water molecules arrange themselves in three physical states - solid, liquid, and gas. They explain the molecular behavior of ice, water, and water vapor.
Curated OER
Inter-State Matters
Students explore the six phase transitions between gases, liquids and solids for a variety of elements. Each group of students focuses on a different element, investigating its physical properties during each of the six phase transitions.

What in the World is Matter?
How does matter change and what are its properties? This presentation is a bit scattered and attempts to infuse humor in place of concrete definitions. In order to make this worthwhile for classroom use, you will need to add to it.

Platonic Solids
Students identify different types of polygons. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between convex and regular shapes. they identify the names of two and three-dimensional objects.
Curated OER
Solids Liquids and Gases
In this tracing worksheet, students trace sentences about solids, liquids, and gases. Students trace 9 sentences total on this worksheet.
Curated OER
Water and Ice
Learners examine how water changes state, from a liquid to a solid. In this water lesson students study the water cycle and how temperature and pressure effect it.
Curated OER
Water and Ice
Students observe what happens to water as it goes from a solid to a liquid. In this exploratory lesson plan students gain an understanding for the water cycle while working in groups observing what happens to water as it changes...

Alcohol and Its Impact on the Brain
Students examine water as it changes states. In water and ice lesson students study the water cycle and what happens to it as it changes state.
Curated OER
Water and Ice
Students observe water as it changes form. In this water activity students observe, measure, and describe water as it changes state.
Curated OER
Water and Ice
Students study the water cycle and the different forms of water. In this exploratory lesson plan students observe, measure and describe water as it changes state.
