In this lesson, students use their science knowledge and apply it using physical activity! Learning about the stages of matter, solid, liquid and gas, students perform an exercise for each as the teacher calls out an object such as soup...

Educational site provides activities for teachers to use to teach the states of matter as well as provides videos to supplement instruction.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Definition of state of matter and the three common states of matter and their differences.

In this lesson, students will move and generate choreography to understand different states of matter.

Learn about the changing states of matter.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Definition of state of matter and the three common states of matter and their differences.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Kinetic theory of matter and how kinetic energy relates to the state of matter.

Background information: This activity is an extension of the children's exposure to states of matter in the Scott Foresman science series for Grade 2. This lesson has a Literacy component. Using the book by Dr. Seuss, "Bartholomew and...

For this activity, learners take part in a simulation of the three states of matter where they role play being molecules. They then create simple balloon rockets and must explain why a gas is the only state of matter that can cause the...

This site from the Coalition for Plasma Science provides a short, interesting paper outlining the relative importance or precedence of plasma compared to the other states of matter.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Explains how to describe matter in the solid state, about the properties of liquid matter and gases, and what the relationship between energy and states of matter is.

The class will go back over the Power Point presentation on chemical and physical properties. The teacher will then conduct numerous liquid nitrogen demos. This lesson is used early in the Chemistry course. The students love it. This...

Learn about the three phases of matter, and how the addition and removal of thermal energy (also known as heat) affects them.

Engaging hands on science lessons for grades 2-6 on the three states of matter.

Matter changes both physically and chemically on a fairly regular basis. Through these activities students will challenge their understanding of the changes that may take place with different types of matter.

In this Physical Science exploration activity, students explore the meaning of the words solid, liquid, and gas. Student groups complete a chart with examples of each type of matter and its properties and then record their observations...

A ten-question quiz to check knowledge about states of matter.

Good discussion on the conditions and natural existence of plasmas.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Describes the three states of matter of water.

In this lesson, students match a substance with its state of matter, identify what state something is, and learn about temporary and permanent changes in matter.

Learn about states of matter on a flight tour over the Atlantic Ocean.

A slideshow illustrating the science of matter from its properties, states, and classification to mixtures and the Periodic Table of Elements.
