We began our unit on matter in Science this week! We're doing some really great activities to go along with matter and I can't wait to see the finished products! We set up our matter flip-books today to help us organize our information on matter. The students are coming home this weekend with the flip-books started and have to complete them to turn in on Monday. The students must glue in the information that I provided that reminds us of what the particles look like in each state of matter, how the particles react to their container, and how the particles move. Once the students have glued this into their flip-books they are to find pictures in magazines or on the interest of examples of each of the three states of matter: solids, liquids, and gases. Everyone seemed pretty excited about this project and I cannot wait to see the work that our wise owls put together! I know they will do a great job!
Once we had out flip-books set up to be completed over the weekend, we completed a "Nana Knows It All" experiment. Our experiment took two states of matter and combined them to create a new state of matter. My two Super-Students of the day helped me with this experiment while our wise owls watched and made predictions. We recorded our experiment to share with you! You can see the experiment below! This experiment can be replicated at home, as we used common household items! Let your wise owl show you how to make a new state of matter!
