Curated OER
Making Ice Cream
Student examine the physical changes of matter and are able to describe them. They make ice cream in plastic bags to observe the changes in matter. They describe and record the changes in the ice cream mixture as it freezes.
Curated OER
Ecology
Pupils identify and describe three states of water. They predict how water will change states.
Curated OER
It's a Matter of Change
Students watch a video on matter and identify examples of solids, liquids and gases in the classroom. They discuss the attributes for each kind of matter and conduct an experiment to explore how matter can change form.
Curated OER
The Three States of Matter: Energy Matters
Students examine the states of matter; solids, liquids and gases. They explain how the states of matter change from one to another.
Curated OER
Teaching Matter with The Wild Christmas Reindeer
Second graders learn the proper way to take measurements, explore the properties of objects and expand their vocabulary.
Curated OER
Matter Matters!
Second graders experiment with heating and cooling and research the states of matter (solid, liquid, gas).
Curated OER
What Is the Freezing Point?
Students remove heat energy and determine how it causes a phase change.
Curated OER
State of Matter - Atoms
Students 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
Students 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
Coca-Cola Ph Lab
Students compare the pH of Coca-Cola from the USA to the pH of Coca-Cola from Mexico. They also test and compare the pH of other liquids.
Curated OER
Plate Tectonic - Volcanoes
Students watch and learn the different levels of "viscosity" in liquids to explain molten lava after viewing a video of a Hawaiian volcano.
Curated OER
Substances And Chemical Reactions
Students watch and predict chemical reactions when different substances are mixed together. They differentiate between solid, liquid, and gas.
Curated OER
Matter: Three States of Matter
Learners discover characteristics of each of the three states of matter: solid, liquid and gas.
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
Liquids
In this science and printing practice worksheet, students trace 15 sentences that give information about the properties of liquids and solids.
Curated OER
Stations for Liquids
In this liquid worksheet, 6th graders study different types of liquids and liquid conversations. Students respond to 22 questions comparing beverages, milk, and soups.
Curated OER
The Pressure Of A Liquid
Students observe what happens when the pressure of a liquid is not distributed evenly on an object. In liquid pressure instructional activity 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 students complete a lab that shows them how waters volume can change.
Curated OER
What's the Matter?
Students investigate matter. In 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 worksheet, students watch a movie and then compare the differences between compounds and mixtures. This worksheet has 16 fill in the blank questions.
