Three States of Matter
All matter is made of tiny seperate particles called moelcules. The molecules of all matter are in constant motion, moving in every direction. This motion is called energy. There are three states of matter: solids, liquids, and gases. In the solid state, the molecules hold together. They keep their positions even though they are vibrating rapidly. In liquids, the vibrating molecules are not held together-they roll and slide around each other. In gases, the molecules are moving so rapidly that they bounce apart and are widely seperated.
This week, you will create a poster to show your understanding of the three states of matter. You may use popcorn, beans, styrofoam packaging, or anything else you have in your home to create a poster of the molecules in solids, liquids, and gases. Make sure your project includes your name, title, and three correctly labeled states of matter. Have fun and be CREATIVE! Be ready to share your poster in class on: Friday, November 7th.
