Three States Of Matter

We had a fun time exploring properties of solids! We learned they can be soft or hard, rough or smooth, etc. We also learned solids keep their shape unlike liquids. Some students shared;however, that they know of solids that can melt into liquids like ice and chocolate. Here are some kids sorting their solids based on different properties!







After sorting, we got to work with our table groups to create a structure that could stand. This allowed the students to learn about what kind of materials are stronger, should be a base, etc. We may have some future engineers or architects in room 101!
