TEACHER’S GUIDE
Matter of the Day:
Purposeful Practice with Properties of Matter
DESCRIPTION
This product includes 30 slides to be used when teaching properties of matter such as magnetism, solubility, relative density (sink/float),
and conductivity. It is designed to be used as a daily warm-up or review to supplement a hands-on science curriculum. It is built to meet
the needs of 5th grade students as they prepare for STAAR science and addresses TEKS 5.5A. High-quality, real photos accompany each slide
and students fill out a chart to analyze the properties of each type of matter. A challenge question is included on each slide to build critical
thinking skills. The challenge questions help students make real-world connections, find similarities and differences, and apply what they
are learning to different situations. If you would prefer to use this product in small groups or during science stations/centers, a task card
version of the slides is also included! The product download includes:
*30 whole class slides with same slides provided in task card form to be used in small groups
*3 possible recording sheets with graphic organizers—one for students to simply record the properties, one for students to write a sentence
to describe each property, and one circle map with a CLOZE passage
*A short teacher’s guide and answer key are provided (challenge questions are open-ended and are not included in the key)
SUGGESTIONS FOR USING THIS PRODUCT
•
The strength of this product is in the repetition! Students need to use new vocabulary multiple times before they begin to internalize
it. After about 5 days, your students will be pros at using words like solubility and relative density!
•
Make an anchor chart of the vocabulary words magnetism, solubility, conductivity (conductor/insulator), relative density (sink/float),
and physical state (solid, liquid, gas) for students to refer to as you work through the slides.
•
Work through a slide a day as a class having students complete one of the organizers before discussing their responses.
•
Place slides (or task cards) in a science station to review properties of matter.
•
Help students make connections between properties of matter by looking at the properties of all the plastic items, all the metal items,
all the glass items, etc.
•
Make it hands-on! Instead of just telling students that cinnamon powder is not soluble, show them. Test properties of substances that
are unfamiliar to students with a quick class demonstration.
•
Stretch your students by requiring them to describe the shape, size, texture, color, and other details for each sample of matter!
