TIN CAN TREAT
Students conduct an experiment where they will change a liquid dairy product into a solid. They review the definitions of liquids and solids. Students are given an example of each. They are divided into groups of four, each group is...
Curated OER
Solids, Liquids, and Gases
Students explore the three main forms of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. They examine concrete examples of each, using their five senses and "experimenting" to find differences in them. They find pictures of each, cut them out and past...
Curated OER
A Matter of Fact
Third graders define matter as anything that takes up space and has mass, recognize, through experimentation and observation, that matter exists in three forms, including solid, liquid, and gas, and discuss characteristics of each form...
Curated OER
Water: Liquid or Solid?
First graders investigate how water can be both a liquid and a solid. They weigh popsicles and observe them as they write in their science journals. They measure the liquid as the popsicle melts and refreeze them to change them back...
Curated OER
Properties of Matter
Third graders explore forms of matter through reading, hands-on science activities, and research using the Internet. Students create a booklet, directions given, that they title and decorate, to later serve as a review visualization...
Curated OER
Phases of Matter
Eighth graders practice using correct vocabulary and apply content knowledge related to phases of matter when answering questions about situations or observations from everyday life.
Curated OER
Ecology
Students identify and describe three states of water. They predict how water will change states.
Curated OER
Matter Matters!
Second graders experiment with heating and cooling and research the states of matter (solid, liquid, gas).
Curated OER
State of Matter - Atoms
Learners examine and discuss how atoms change from solid to liquid to gas. They inflate a balloon by melting ice that converts to steam, and discuss the results.
Curated OER
What Is the Matter with Water?
Second graders observe matter in all 3 states : liquid, solid and gas, in an ice cream soda. In teams, they are given ice and teams compete to be the first to melt their ice. Winner gets the ice cream soda. They draw examples of 3 states...
Curated OER
Cloud Watchers
Second graders read "The Cloud Book" by Tomie dePaola to jumpstart their cloud study. They offer examples of liquids, solids, and gases and chart them. They observe the making of a cloud in a demonstration. They discuss and draw...
Curated OER
Matter
Fifth graders investigate the nature of matter and of the scientific processes associated with them in this series of lessons.
Curated OER
Water Into Gas
Learners investigate how temperature and pressure cause a material to change phase. They heat water to reclaim a gas. They demonstrate that different liquids evaporate at different temperatures.
Curated OER
Phases of Matter
Students describe the motion of solids, liquids and gases. In this chemistry lesson, students describe how temperature affect motion of the particles. They determine the physical properties of each phase.
Curated OER
The Pressure Of A Liquid
Young scholars observe what happens when the pressure of a liquid is not distributed evenly on an object. In liquid pressure lesson students view a demonstration and see how the pressure of a liquid works.
Curated OER
Mass of Water vs. Ice
Students examine how ice changes state and when its volume changes. In this mass lesson plan students complete a lab that shows them how waters volume can change.
Curated OER
What's the Matter?
Students investigate matter. For this matter lesson, students identify types of matter and characteristics of each type. Students discuss matter and create matter posters to show understanding.
Curated OER
Compounds and Mixtures Notes
In this matter learning exercise, students watch a movie and then compare the differences between compounds and mixtures. This learning exercise has 16 fill in the blank questions.
Curated OER
What Are Physical Changes in Matter?
In this matter worksheet, students write down 3 causes and effects of physical changes in matter. This worksheet is a graphic organizer.
Curated OER
What is a Physical Change in Matter?
In this matter worksheet, students complete a graphic organizer by writing in 1 thing that causes a physical change in matter and 3 effects this has on matter.
