MHJC Values: Awhinatanga/Compassion: Positive partnerships

Paearu Angitu (Success Criteria): I can...

• To identify the arrangement of particles in each state of matter.
• To define density.
• To link the arrangement of particles in each state of matter to their properties.

Hei Mahi (Activities):

1. Describe how the arrangement of particles in each state of matter give them defined properties

2. Describe how the arrangement of particles in gas mean it is often compressed and this causes gas pressure

3. draw the arrangement of particles in solids, liquids and gases, link the properties of solids, liquids and gases to the arrangement of their particles and describe the effects of gas pressure.

Mahi Kāinga (Homework/Further Learning):

• BrainPOP Tasks
• Virtual Experiment
