Density of Rocks
Given a variety of rocks, junior geologists calculate densities and correlate them to Earth's layers. As a simulation of continental crust, they experiment with how materials of differing density float in water. Finally, they...
Curated OER
Liquids and Solids
Students describe the properties of solids and liquids, and explain how a semiconductor works. In this atom instructional activity students demonstrate the bonding properties of carbon and silicon.
Curated OER
Water and Ice
Students observe, measure, and communicate while observing water convert from a solid to a liquid and back again. In this solid and liquid lesson plan, students answer questions as they observe this change.

As a Matter of Fact: Solids, Liquids and Gases
Sometimes a simple explanation is best when introducing new concepts. Identify the three states of matter with this presentation. Each slide provides a simple description and examples for each of the three states. Tip: Show students the...
Curated OER
Water and Ice
Students investigate how water goes from a solid to a liquid then back again. In this experimental lesson plan students conduct their own experiment and see how water changes form.
Curated OER
Water 1: Water and Ice
Students investigate water in its solid and liquid form. In this states of matter activity, students experiment to see what happens as water goes from a solid, ice, to a liquid, water, and back again. They write about and illustrate the...
Curated OER
Mixtures of Matter
Students experiment with solids and liquids. In this mixtures of matter lesson, students combine matter to form solutions. Students hypothesize, test, and analyze the data to draw conclusions. The lesson can be extended by having...

Science: The States of Matter
Third graders conduct experiments in matter to create chemical changes resulting in gases. By mixing solids and liquids, they create a chemical reaction and capture the gas in balloons. After observing the balloons fill with carbon...
Curated OER
Water 1: Water and Ice
Students experiment with states of matter with water and ice. In this states of matter lesson, students experiment to discover what happens to water as it freezes to become a solid, ice. They observe what happens when ice melts back to...

Molecular View of a Solid
Why are solids, well ... solid? Take a peek inside a solid substance with an easy-to-use interactive. Science sleuths examine the motion and position of the atoms that make up a solid before drawing conclusions from their observations.
Curated OER
Water - Solid and Liquid
First graders conduct a science inquiry by comparing water in its liquid and solid form. The students describe the different stages of water and complete a worksheet answering questions about each form of the water. Teacher assessment...

What Is the Matter?
Students explore and identify phases of matter and compare the particle motion in solids, liquids, and gasses.
Akron Art Museum
Storytelling Resist
The illustrations of Ezra Jack Keats in The Snowy Day inspire young artists to examine shapes in illustrations and to use these shapes to create their own watercolor resist painting.
Science 4 Inquiry
States and Phases of Matter
Plasma is the most common phase of matter in our universe. Scholars explore the change of energy as molecules change phases of matter. They rotate through stations, graphing the changes in energy level.
