On deck… more sweet science! This activity isn’t an experiment as much as it is a simple demonstration of the three different states of matter. For this reason, I love the opportunity it gives kids to go home and “teach” others. One thing I really like about these labs is that they’re easy (and fairly cheap) to repeat. This lab□comes with recording sheets and a nonfiction page explaining the chemical reaction. It’s one of our favorite labs for learning about the changing states of matter. This is something I routinely do if I don’t have time during science.īefore we start this next investigation, I ask… “How can we get this balloon inflated without blowing air into it?” Their ideas are pretty cute, but none of them have ever correctly hypothesized the baking soda-vinegar answer. Because of the nature of the work, you could plan this activity for your literacy block. It’s easy to prep, especially if you teach the kids how to do the folding and cutting themselves. The picture at the top of the post□shows the ice cream flip book. There’s an informational reading passage that explains the science behind the ice cream lab, as well as a flip book project that reflects their comprehension. Following the science lab, you can integrate reading and writing with a variety of connected activities that are also provided in the set. In this STATES OF MATTERteaching resource, I’ve included lab worksheets and step-by-step charts showing students how to make their own vanilla ice cream. And you might be surprised by how few ingredients you need: That’s literally a recipe for success.įor children who are learning about the changing states of matter, Baggie Ice Cream is a fun, kinesthetic way to show how matter can be changed by cold temperatures. I mean, how could it not? It’s cream, sugar, and vanilla. That being said, did you know you can make ice cream in a plastic bag? It’s one of those things you see on Pinterest and raise an eyebrow at, but it actually works. My now-grown daughter would add that her fourth grade teacher’s Munchie Math was her favorite math experience ever, and is apparently the only reason she understands fractions to this day. Children will answer the questions – what is plasma, some examples of plasma and their thoughts.I think food makes most things better, even science. Children will answer the questions – what is a gas, some examples of a gas and their thoughts. ![]() Children will answer the questions – what is a liquid, some examples of liquids and their thoughts.įollowing this is a page all about gasses. This is followed by a page all about liquids. Children will answer the questions – what is a solid, some examples of solids and their thoughts. There are four boxes for children to write their thoughts and any interesting things they find out about this when doing their research. The third page is all about Bose-Einstein Condensate. There is also a blank spot for them to write or draw interesting facts or other things they come across as they study this subject. Children will answer the questions – what is matter, some examples of matter and their thoughts. The cover page contains an image of how it all works. Each page is about a different state of matter. This book consists of six pages plus a cover page. This can be used to complete the flip book, though extra research, resources and study are encouraged. This matter printable pack, comes with five pages of information about what matter is and about each of the five states of matter. With this flip book, children will learn about the five different states of matter: Bose-Einstein Condensate, Solid, Liquid, Gas and Plasma. ![]() ![]() Children will enjoy learning about the states of matter with this fun and easy to make States of Matter Flip Book.Ĭheck out the list of materials that we use with these printables.
