Curriculum

Science 3.2(A)

Plan and implement descriptive investigations, including asking and answering questions, making inferences, and selecting and using equipment or technology needed, to solve a specific problem in the natural world;
Science 3.2(B)

Collect and record data by observing and measuring using the metric system and recognize differences between observed and measured data;
Science 3.2(F)

Communicate valid conclusions supported by data in writing, by drawing pictures, and through verbal discussion.
Science 3.3(A)

Analyze, evaluate, and critique scientific explanations by using evidence, logical reasoning, and experimental and observational testing;
Science 3.5(B)

Describe and classify samples of matter as solids, liquids, and gases and demonstrate that solids have a definite shape and that liquids and gases take the shape of their container;
Science 3.5(C)

Predict, observe, and record changes in the state of matter caused by heating or cooling such as ice becoming liquid water, condensation forming on the outside of a glass of ice water, or liquid water being heated to the point of becoming wa...
Science 4.2(A)

Plan and implement descriptive investigations, including asking well defined questions, making inferences, and selecting and using appropriate equipment or technology to answer his/her questions;
Science 4.2(B)

Collect and record data by observing and measuring, using the metric system, and using descriptive words and numerals such as labeled drawings, writing, and concept maps;
Science 4.2(D)

Analyze data and interpret patterns to construct reasonable explanations from data that can be observed and measured;
Science 4.2(F)

Communicate valid oral and written results supported by data.
Science 4.3(A)

Analyze, evaluate, and critique scientific explanations by using evidence, logical reasoning, and experimental and observational testing;
Science 4.5(A)

Measure, compare, and contrast physical properties of matter, including mass, volume, states (solid, liquid, gas), temperature, magnetism, and the ability to sink or float; and
Science 5.5(A)

Classify matter based on measurable, testable, and observable physical properties, including mass, magnetism, physical state (solid, liquid, and gas), relative density (sinking and floating using water as a reference point), solubility in wa...

Solids, Liquids, and Gases…Teach the Forms of Matter With Teach Starter!

Are you on the hunt for engaging and ready-made lesson plans for teaching your students about the three forms of matter? If so, you’re in the right place! We’ve put together a massive collection of brand-new resources that are ready and waiting for you to grab and implement in the classroom today. To get you started, we’ve put together the perfect teaching slide deck for introducing your students to solids, liquids, and gases.

Solids, Liquids, and Gases PowerPoint Presentation

Use this teaching presentation when exploring states of matter with your students. The presentation also explores how matter can change states by adding and removing heat.

Some of the key concepts addressed in this presentation include:

definitions and examples of each state of matter (solid, liquid, gas)
an explanation of how temperature changes can occur
explanations of how each change of state occurs
animated examples of various changes of state.

The presentation also includes links to a range of additional teaching resources that can reinforce the students’ learning.

Download, Project, and Teach!

This resource is available as an editable Google Slides resource file. To get your copy, click the download button to download your slide deck. From there, all you have to do is project and start teaching!

This resource was created by Kaylyn Chupp, a teacher in Florida and Teach Starter collaborator.
