Changes in Matter Lesson

Changes in

Matter

Learning Target: Identify the states of matter and

how matter changes from one form to another.

Notebook Setup
Instructions

1)

Title your next notebook page
“Changes in Matter” then write the
learning target.

2)

Cut out the States of matter
foldable (don’t forget to cut the
tabs) and glue it to the top of your
page under the learning target

3)

Cut out the phase change diagram
and glue it under the state of
matter foldable.

4)

Use the Quizizz lesson that follows
to complete the foldable,
diagram,and the definitions of the
phase changes,

How to complete the States of

Matter foldable

1) Write the

characteristics of each
state of matter under
each flap.

2) Draw the images for

each state of matter
under each flap

SOLIDS

Characteristics:

•definite shape
•definite volume
•atoms are packed tightly
together with very little
movement
•atoms vibrate against one
another

LIQUIDS

Characteristics:

• definite volume
• indefinite shape
• liquids will take the shape of the
container they are in.
• atoms within a liquid are loosely
packed together
• liquid particles slide past one another

GAS

Characteristics:

•indefinite shape - gases will take the
shape of the container they are
placed into.
•indefinite volume - gases will spread
out in order to fill their containers.
•atoms are in constant free
movement. They will spread out
quickly and fill the space they are
contained in
•gas particles move quickly and
collide often

How to complete the Phase Change

Diagram

1) Watch the video to help you

label each part of the
diagram by writing the term
next to each letter.

2) Write the definition of each

term at the bottom of your
notebook page.

3) Once complete answer the

quiz questions that follow to
check your understanding.
