01.- Classify these things into solids, liquids and gases. | |||||
1.- Classify these things into solids, liquids and gases. | |||||
2.- Remember! | |||||
SOLIDS | |||||
1.- Observe, touch,… different solids and then complete the table below. Put a tick or a cross. | |||||
2.- What do you imagine the structure that forms...... to be like? | |||||
3.- Use the microscope to see the structure that forms… | |||||
4.- We are going to grow crystals from the saturated solution. You already know what a sugar crystal is like, but after the experiment: What do you imagine a sugar crystal to be like? Bigger, smaller, the same colour, a different colour… Draw it and add measurements. | |||||
5.- Let’s grow crystals. | |||||
6.- Let's dilate a solid. | |||||
7.- After observing, touching, imagining, drawing, measuring… the whole class is ready to define what a solid is. | |||||
LIQUIDS | |||||
1.- Observe, touch,… different liquids and then complete the table below. Put a tick or a cross. | |||||
2.- What do you imagine the structure that forms…... to be like? | |||||
3.- Use the microscope to see the structure that forms… | |||||
4.- Let's dilate a liquid, let's make a thermometer. | |||||
5.- After observing, touching, imagining, drawing, measuring… the whole class is ready to define what a liquid is. | |||||
GASES | |||||
1.- Observe, touch,… different gases and then complete the table below. Put a tick or a cross. | |||||
2.- What do you imagine the structure that forms…... to be like? | |||||
3.- Use the microscope to see the structure that forms… | |||||
4.- Let's investigate if the air that we breath can be weighed. | |||||
5.- We will compare the weight of the air in your classroom with your weight. | |||||
6.- Can you compress a gas? | |||||
7.- Let's dilate a gas. | |||||
