Students participate in a science experiment to understand that matter takes up space.  In this matter lesson, students experiment with solids, liquids and gases to recognize that matter is everywhere. Students make observations and...

Students relate the states of matter and clouds.  For this environment lesson, students create a chart of information they know about clouds.  Students put an ice cube in a bag and tape to a window. Students watch for...

Learners use Oobleck to investigate the properties of colloids. In this Oobleck and colloid lesson plan, students listen to the beginning of  Bartholomew and the Oobleck by Dr. Seuss. They experiment with Oobleck (corn starch,...

Learners use inquiry to explore how their dunking duckie bobs up and down. In this states of matter lesson, the teacher guides the class towards discovering how the dunking duckies continue to bob up and down for days without being touched.

In this states of matter activity, students are given 5 diagrams showing particles of matter and students predict the temperatures of each and the reasoning for their prediction given 5 different temperature to choose from. Students...

Learners observe and explain how a change in temperature causes a physical change in a substance.  In this physical science instructional activity, students use a soap making kit to observe the effects of adding heat to the bar...

Students demonstrate the three states of matter. In this matter lesson, students read Bartholomew and the Ooblek. Students create "ooblek" and discuss what state of matter it is.

Students explore the three states of matter. In this physics lesson, students are shown examples of solids, liquids, and gases. Students make cookies and identify the three states of matter during the baking process.

Fifth graders investigate chemical reactions. In this physical science lesson, 5th graders make dry ice root beer and identify the type of change that occurs to the root beer mixture.

Students examine the changes as water goes from solid to liquid. In this states of matter lesson, students observe and record the changes to water as it changes from solid to liquid and back to solid.

Young scholars perform experiments in pairs to visualize the changes in water during freezing and melting. In this properties of water lesson, students use their senses and inquiry tools to understand the changes in state of water....

Students investigate the states that water may take. For this physical science lesson, students read the book, Water: Up, Down, and All Around and recall the states of water from the book. Students examine how water takes the shape of...

Students investigate gases and their properties by completing 4 activities. For this gases lesson plan, students perform activities to show that gases take up space, they diffuse, and that odors and vibrations pass through gases. They...

Young scholars examine the properties of solids, liquids, and gasses. In this states of matter instructional activity, the teacher guides students through a series of experiments to illustrate each state of matter and how matter changes...

In this recognizing how states of matter change worksheet, students use words from the word bank to fill in the missing words to describe how water changes to steam and ice and how steam and ice change to form water. Students complete 4...

Students explore various states of matter. For this science lesson plan, students recognize the properties of each state of matter and recognize the similarities and differences between the three states of matter.

Students discover states of matter. In this science lesson plan, students define matter, identify states of matter, explain properties of matter, and demonstrate the various uses of the states of matter.

Students conduct studies of states of matter. In this science lesson plan, students observe the properties of matter and classify different substances as solids, liquids, and gases.

Student explore states of matter. In this science lesson plan, students define matter, identify the states of matter, tell about the properties of each state of matter, and demonstrate an understanding of the difference between a...

In this density and buoyancy worksheet, students read about the equation to find density and practice finding the density of substances. They read about buoyancy and match 10 terms with their definitions related to density, buoyancy and...

In this chemical equations worksheet, students identify the reactants and the products, state what phase each is in, and state the mole ratios of all the products and reactants. Students complete 10 problems.

For this chemical reactions worksheet, students are given fifteen unbalanced equations and they must identify the reaction types, the phases of the products, the signs that a chemical change occurred and the sum of the coefficients of...

In this phase diagram worksheet, students answer questions about three given diagrams. They determine the boiling point, melting points and sublimation points for each substance. They also answer questions about the triple points and the...

For this thermochemistry worksheet, students indicate whether the given processes are endothermic or exothermic reactions. Students complete the phase change diagram as well as define a given set of vocabulary words. Students calculate...
