One Ocean: It Matters!
Here is the first of four poignant lessons on how humans and oceans interact, even if people live far from the coast. This particular lesson also examines studies that are taking place in Antarctica of how climate change is affecting the...
Curated OER
Matter
First graders study and define matter. They observe and identify states of matter along with common attributes and study how matter can change form or change its state depending on temperature.
Curated OER
Classifying Matter
Second graders conduct investigations to explore matter. In this states of matter instructional activity, 2nd graders complete four activities to analyze the three states of matter. Students analyze the properties of solids, liquids, and...
Curated OER
What is Matter?
Learners create a definition of matter. In this physical science lesson, students work in pairs to sort items printed on cards into several categories (matter, non-matter, and unsure) and agree on a definition of matter.
Curated OER
Instructional Lesson Plan: States of Matter and their Properties
Students identify the three states of matter and their properties. In this physical science lesson, students explore a website on the states of matter and complete a worksheet.
Curated OER
States of Matter Mini-Unit
Middle schoolers identify he phases of matter (solid, liquid, gas), and why they take place. They comprehend what a physical change is and what a chemical change is. Students know the difference between a Mixture and a Solution.
Curated OER
Phases of Matter
Eighth graders practice using correct vocabulary and apply content knowledge related to phases of matter when answering questions about situations or observations from everyday life.
Curated OER
Identifying Matter by Sound and Feel
Students explore the physical properties of matter. In this matter lesson plan, students collaborate as they participate in an activity that requires them to identify objects using their senses of sight and touch.
Curated OER
It's a Matter of Change
Students watch a video on matter and identify examples of solids, liquids and gases in the classroom. They discuss the attributes for each kind of matter and conduct an experiment to explore how matter can change form.
Curated OER
Matter Unit
Students create products from studying about matter that include: Make a "T" chart with matter and non matter items. Write a poem, song, or rap about matter. Five vocabulary words from the chapter must be included in the poem.
Curated OER
Matter: Three States of Matter
Students discover characteristics of each of the three states of matter: solid, liquid and gas.
Curated OER
What's The Matter
Learners identify and describe the different stages of matter. In groups, the use lego pieces to represent the moving parts of matter. They use the internet to research the meanings of nano, micro and macro sizes. They also use the...
Curated OER
A Matter of Fact
Third graders define matter as anything that takes up space and has mass, recognize, through experimentation and observation, that matter exists in three forms, including solid, liquid, and gas, and discuss characteristics of each form...
Curated OER
Phases of Matter
In this Bill Nye packet, 5th graders focus on the phases of matter. Students complete a chart of what is already known and what has been learned as well as 6 short answer, 7 true/false, and 3 multiplie choice questions about the...
Curated OER
As a Matter of Fact
Students rotate through various hands-on experiment stations to explore the concept and properties of different types of matter. They compare some properties of solids, liquids and gases and describe how matter changes from one state to...
