Dissolving and Back Again
From solid to liquid and then back again. Young scientists dissolve salt in water and then evaporate the water while observing what happens to the solute. They use their observations to make predictions about other solutions.
Curated OER
Water and Ice
Students observe and discuss what happens when water turns to ice and when ice turns into water. In this freezing and melting lesson plan, students observe ice and water and complete hands on activities that change their properties.

Brain POP - States of Matter
In this states of matter worksheet, students visit the website http://www.brainpop.com/science/matter and watch a movie to complete 7 fill in the blank questions, 5 matching questions, and an 18 clue crossword.
Curated OER
Ecology
Students identify and describe three states of water. They predict how water will change states.
Curated OER
What Is the Freezing Point?
Students remove heat energy and determine how it causes a phase change.
Curated OER
Sound
Students complete a unit to learn about sound; students include multiplication and division problems along with rate problems. In this sound lesson, students complete 7 separate lessons with multiple activities to learn about sound.
Curated OER
Atmospheric Pressure
Ninth graders explore the abstract idea of the atom and explain the differences and similarities between solids, liquids, and gases. They understand the molecular differences between solids, liquids, and gases.
Curated OER
Heating/Cooling Curve
For this heating and cooling curve worksheet, students use a given graph of a substance being heated from a solid to a liquid and then a gas over time. They use the graph to answer eleven questions about the phases of the substance and...
Curated OER
Straw Chromatography
Young scholars become acquainted with the principles of liquid chromatography and construct a liquid chromatography column. Students also investigate the effects of different solvents and solvent concentrations in the separation process.
Curated OER
Non-Newtonian Fluids
Learners will use water, cornstarch, eggs, and more to explore the different states of matter. They will make observations of an unknown substance called "Oobleck" and test its liquid and solid properties. This would be a great lesson to...
Curated OER
Rising Water!
Students observe water change from a liquid to a gas state when heated and then return to its liquid stage when cooled. They learn that gas molecules move faster than liquid molecules. They discover physical properties that describe how...
