With this resource, students will view a demonstration of the different phases of matter in relation to water .
With this resource, students will view and analyze of video of vinegar and baking soda.
Whenever a chemical change occurs, there are often changes in the physical properties of the substance that undergoes the change. Remember how different a fried egg looks from the raw egg? In this activity, students test the temperature and see how this physical property changes as a result of chemical change.
With this resource, students will oxidize a penny.
With this resource, students will demonstrate the relationship between changes and energy.
In this activity, that provides enough ice cream for four people, students will remove heat energy and observe changes.
This activity is designed to help students identify the phases of matter. Students will experiment with and record measurements to determine the relationship between the water in all three phases of matter and temperature.
With this resource, students will answer questions about heat and increasing the rate of molecules in regards to solids, liquids and gases.
This activity will allow students to experiment with variables and see how they can affect chemical changes!
Using this resource, students will compare physical and chemical properties of matter.
This resource is an article discussing the processes of photysynthesis and respiration.
Using this resource, students will sort materials based on properties.
Both suggested learning activities in this lesson will help students understand the relationship between the weight of reactants and the weight of the products involved in chemical reactions. In the first activity students will combine borax and glue, and in the second activity they will combine vinegar and cream.
In this lesson, students will evaluate a situation and identify right and wrong choices and any possible consequences associated with the situation.
These activities give students the opportunity to compare a physical and chemical change that both involve a change in color. As assessment, students will design an experiment to produce a specific color when combining lemon juice and baking soda.
In this lesson, students will investigate energy, electricity, and circuits by creating an emergency flashlight using common everyday materials. Then they will work collaboratively to design a model subdivision, creating a simple circuit to provide light to the "buildings" in their model.
In this activity, students will organize electricity-related vocabulary words into a web or cluster design.
In this lesson, students will illustrate multiplication problems using Unifix cubes and use properties of multiplication as it relates to division to solve the equations.
While investigating the properties of rocks, students will create a classroom rock collection.
In this activity, students use diapers to investigate physical change. They observe what happens when water is added to the absorbent crystals found in the diaper. Students then design and carry out an additional investigation and complete a detailed write-up of the investigation.
