We talked as a group about the different ways we can describe things. We talked about color, size, smell, texture, and more. We also talked about how things change.
We discussed how we use our senses to find differences and similarities.

We did this as a group, so you can go ahead to step 2.

Play this quick sorting game to help Sid the Science Kid master sorting! Being able to distinguish different properties and categorize items together is the biggest part of classifying objects like scientists. When you are done with the game, move on to step 3.

Let’s use comments to talk about different ideas and things we noticed during the video.

Be sure to put your name at the end of your comment. Use your favorite animal and your first name. For example, I would be Carsen the Sea Turtle.

Take this time to ask questions or show off your amazing brains by explaining something you learned. You can also make a connection to some physical properties you’ve noticed in real life.  Once you post your comment, move on to step 5.

Use the comments to come up with 4 examples of physical properties of an every day object around you. You could possibly describe your pencil, a desk, or even the computer. Remember, you can talk about size, color, texture, luster, and more. Go back to the Discovery video if you need more ideas.

Hint: Pick just 1 object to describe. Find a variety of different things to describe about it and list 4. Use the classroom around you for inspiration.

Remember, Be sure to put your names at the end of your comment. Use your favorite animal and your first name. For example, I would be Carsen the Sea Turtle.

We know that objects have properties, but what happens when things change? Are they still the same? Can we reverse those changes? Check out Tim and Moby's movie on physical versus chemical changes.

You only need to understand that objects can change and some changes are permanent.

Take this quick, 6-question* quiz to put your brain to the test. Work on this by yourself. Do not worry about spelling. As long as I know what you are trying to say, it will be okay! Be creative with your answers at the end.

*The quiz is 1 name question, 6 required questions about properties, then 2 extra credit questions.

Challenge: Read the optional article to get a better idea of physical and chemical changes to help you answer the 2 extra credit questions on the quiz. The extra credit questions are not required and will not hurt your score.

When you are done with the quiz, move on to step 10, the last step!

You did a great job going through this activity! Take a quick break and jam out to this song about properties. Put your headphones in so you do not disturb your neighbors.

To finish off, let's use the comments one last time to piece together different things we talked about today and discuss what we liked or didn’t like.
1. You'll post at least one thing you learned about properties, then you can include as many questions or concerns as you’d like. Tell me if you need clarification on anything or if you feel super ready to move on.
2. Find one question from step 4 that someone posted and try to answer it with the information you learned today.

Hint: You should have at least 2 comments with your code name on them under this tab.
