This easy-to-prep resource includes:
- a complete teacher lesson plan including possible modifications for differentiation.
- phase changes of matter (states of matter) solids, liquids and gases.
- particle model of matter in relation to hot and cold temperatures
- heating and cooling matter.
- expansion and contraction of materials and how molecules act.
- how mass does/does not change during phase changes.
- how liquid thermometers work.
- the Celsius scale and significant events that happen at different temperatures.
- how building materials react to temperature changes and how that affects construction in different places.
- an open-ended project to construct a tool that measures temperature
- experiments that use common materials: plastic bottles, water, ice cubes, a freezer, thermometers and bowls.
- using scientific method skills during various experiments
- assessment tools for students and teachers.
- marking guide for the project and reflection pages for students.
