Physical Science is important to have a greater understanding of what this happening, according to Joe Krajcik. My main focus will be on physical change. According to National Geographic, physical change is when the material physically changes, but the substances do not. The material changes in texture, shape, or state.

  • Physical Science: "any of the natural sciences (such as physics, chemistry, and astronomy) that deal primarily with nonliving materials." 
  • Physical Change: Change to the physical properties of a substance. 
  • Physical Features: Physical change is change of features. For example: color, shape, volume, density, size, etc.
  • Heating: energy transferred between two substances with different temperatures. Higher temperature is transfer to the substance with lower temperature. 
  • Cooling: removal of heat. 
  • Freezing: liquid turn into a solid. 
  • Melting: the process of transforming a solid to a liquid. 
  • Matter: any substance that has mass and takes up space. 
  • Solids: one of the states of matter. Molecules are packed together and contain the less kinetic energy. 
  • Liquid: one of the states of matter. Flows freely but has constant volume. Has more kinetic energy than solids. 
  • Gas: one of the states of matter. Expands freely meaning having no fixed shape and no fixed volume. 
  • Evaporation: the process when a liquid changes to a gas. 
  • Transpiration: evaporation of water from plant leaves. 
  • Condensation: the process when a gas changes into a liquid. 
  • Precipitation: the process of liquid following back to earth.

    10. Students will have an exit ticket. The exit ticket will ask students for one difference between any of the states of matter. 

    11. Students will work on a science experiment. The science experiment is called the Swirls Around Us. Students will see a demonstration where ice cubes are placed in hot and cold water. The students will see the change of state from solid to liquid. As the demonstration is happening the students will write in their chart what they observe before, during, and after. https://www.scienceworld.ca/resource/swirls-around-us/
     The students will write a paragraph about what they observe in the experiment. I will call a couple students to explain what they observe. 

    12. We work on an experiment, which is called You’re in Hot Water. The students will show the transition of liquid to gas. The demonstration will show the students water boiling in a pot, so during the experiment students will have a chart and write down what they observe before and after the experiment. https://www.scienceworld.ca/resource/youre-hot-water/
    The students will write a paragraph about what they observe in the experiment. I will call a couple of students to explain what they observe. 

    13. We will work on an experiment called Instant Freeze Water. The experiment will demonstrate water changing rapidly to ice. The students will have a chart and write down what they observe before and after the experiment. https://www.stevespanglerscience.com/lab/experiments/instant-freeze-soda-ice/
