Matter can be solid, liquid, or gas. Solids have a definite shape and volume, liquids take the shape of their container but have a definite volume, and gases take the shape and volume of their container. Physical properties like color, shape, size, smell, whether something sinks or floats, can be used to group or sort objects. Color properties include red, blue, yellow, etc. Shapes include square, circle, triangle. Size can be big, medium, small. Smells can be good, sweet, or bad. Sinking means dropping below water and floating means sitting above water. Sorting puts things into groups based on similarities like color, size, or shape.

Editor's Notes

  • #3: Explain that the balloons and fire extinguisher have gas in them
  • #4: Very common, have students give other examples too
  • #5: Water is the most common, You can poor them,Possibly drink them ,Come in all shapes and sizes, Is actually VERY strong (can move rocks)
  • #6: Can be very useful, oxygen is a gas and we breath that, always use caution, Oxygen, Chlorine (first ask if any have pools then explain how chlorine gives off a gas), Helium for balloons
  • #8: Make sure to say that these are not the only colors, tell how it is usually the first thing you notice about something
  • #9: Explain that there are more then just these shapes
  • #10: Size depends on all objects. If the largest thing is a Key (usually not thought of as big) and the smallest is an earing.Do activity w/ students: List some objects on the board and have them put them in order f/ big to small etc.Medium: Small:
  • #11: One of the fives senses that can also be used for sorting.. You can sort diff kinds of food by using the sense of smell Have them give ideas of what they think smells good, bad, sweet, and spicy
  • #12: Something sinks because it is to heavy to float or to stay above water. Tell about how when they swim if they dont kick their feet or actually know how to swim they would sink just like the egg
  • #13: Tell how you stay above water because the sir inside the tube is lighter then the water so it will hold you up no matter how heavy you are.
  • #15: Have students write down things from each of these categories and then share with the class
