    • We are EXPLORING concept of property changes in order to connect our understanding of the material world.
    • We are EXPLORING the meaning and definitions of states of matter, and matter changing states so that we can interpret what they are meaningfully, and the processes involved between different changing states.


    Success Criteria: (Students can...)

    • observe and make connections of physical change of matters 
    • observe and make connections of chemical change of matters
    • define the main states of matter, and name the processes involved correctly
    • do brainstorming for their science fair topic

    1. BrainPop tasks to explore these topics and learn more about the matter and chemistry section of the material world: Property Changes (movie, quiz, vocabulary, related reading); States of Matter (movie, quiz, worksheet, vocabulary, related reading); Matter Changing State (movie, quiz, worksheet, vocabulary, related reading)
