the similarities and differences between the three states of
matter.

dissolve in room temperature water (melting). Observe hot
water in a room temperature jar (evaporation and
condensation). Draw a map showing the changes in states of
matter (solid to liquid to gas and gas to liquid to solid). Use

Bell Work: Reviewing place value, rounding, comparing and
ordering decimals.
We will learn three of water’s physical properties-boiling point,
melting point, and freezing point. We will also grade bellwork
and homework.
I will take a quiz showing I know states of matter is a physical
property of matter.

class/turn in for a grade. Watch TigTag video-Changing States of
Matter. Explain “The Magic Door.” Mentoring Minds Experiment

FGSPT:
How did the blue
water travel
through the beaker
as it melted and
why? How is
evaporation
different than
condensation?
When adding more
energy to water,
how does it
change? When
taking away energy
from water, how
does it change?
Critical Writing:
Use yesterday’s
Venn Diagram on
similarities and
differences
between three
states of matter to
write two
paragraphs
describing the
similarities and
differences
between the three
states of matter.
FGSPT: How can
the melting point
and freezing point
of water be the
same
temperature? At
what temperature
does water boil?
melt? freeze?
