Solids & Liquids

The Solids and Liquids Module provides experiences that spark our students' awareness, curiosity, and understanding of the physical world and provides opportunities to engage in scientific and engineering practices.

Matter with which we interact exists in three fundamental states: solid, liquid, and gas.

  • Observe, describe, and compare the properties and behaviors of solids and liquids. Record observations
  • Recognize the properties of solid materials that make them appropriate for tower construction; build towers.
  • Combine and separate solid materials of different particle sizes using tools.
  • Observe, describe, and record what happens when solids and water are mixed and when liquids and water are mixed.
