EXPLANATION OF THE ACTIVITY.

During the following week you will become a Scientist and you will prove all the things you have learnt during Science lessons about matter.

Your aim will be:
  • Create a video in which you show everybody: states of matter, the changes in matter and the changes of state. 
In this presentation you will see what the process will be:




Here you have all the material you will need to support your work:

LINKS TO YOUR TEACHER'S BLOG ABOUT THIS TOPIC:
A VIDEO TO EXPLAIN YOU HOW TO WORK WITH WINDOWS MOVIE MAKER:


EVALUATION PROCESS.
  • Teacher's evaluation will be done with the following rubric. 28 posible points (60% of the final mark).

  • Self-evaluation will be done with the following bullseye and the previous rubric. 28 posible points (20% of the final mark).



  • Peer's evaluation will be done with the following worksheet. You have to come to an agrement with your classmate about your mark of your teamwork. 28 posible points (20% of the final mark).

CHANGES OF STATE

Today we are going to finish the topic of MATTER. Also we have learnt about PROPERTIES OF MATTER and CHANGES IN MATTER. 
Finally we are going to get to know the CHANGES OF STATE.


First we will watch this video, even though you have to answer these three questions on your notebook:
  • How many states of matter are there?
  • How many changes of state are there?
  • Can you explain to the rest of the class any change of state?
The video is on this web page:
Also we are going to make the test yourself in common.

STATES OF MATTER


SOLIDS LIQUIDS and GASES 


CHANGES OF STATE
This change of state sometimes occurs when the temperature changes.



To get to know more about changes in state we are going to visit this webpage:



A solid changes into a liquid.


A liquid changes into a liquid.


A liquid changes into a gas. (100º C)


A liquid changes into a gas.


A gas changes into a liquid.


A solid changes into a gas.

To refresh changes of state you should do this activity:

CHANGES IN MATTER

We are learning about MATTER, PROPERTIES OF MATTER and today we are getting to know CHANGES IN MATTER.

First we will watch this video, even though you have to answer these three questions on your notebook:
  • How many types of changes in matter are there?
  • Can you explain to the rest of the class what a physical change is?
  • Can you explain to the rest of the class what a chemical change is?
The video is on this web page:
Also we are going to make the test yourself in common.



CHANGES IN MATTER
There are two types:

 The object or substance changes, but the matter remains the same.

The original matter changes into a different substance.

To get to know more about Physical changes and Chemical changes we are going to visit this webpage:

Physical changes:







Chemical changes:

PROPERTIES OF MATTER

Yesterday we have learnt about Matter, today we are going to get to know the PROPERTIES of MATTER.






What is mass?
  It's the amount of matter in an object.
The unit of measure for mass is the kilogram (kg), or kilo.

What is volume?
 It's the amount of space which an objects occupies (take up).
The unit of measure for volume is the is the litre (l).

What is density?
 It is mass per volume. 
To calculate density, divide the mass of a substance by its volume.
To get to know that each object or substance has its own density, we are going to watch this video:

To learn more we are going to make some activities in PDI.

MATTER

Today we are going to start a new unit MATTER.

First to get to know more about Matter we are going to watch this video:

Where can we find matter in the universe?
Everywhere because everything is made of matter

What are tiny particles called that matter is made of?
Atoms

Then, we are going to visit this webpage:

MatterMatter


An element is matter which consists of only one type of atom.
A compound is matter which consists of more than one kind of atom.

TYPES OF MATTER

 Are made up of a single type  of element or compound.

 Are made up of several pure substances.
PROPERTIES OF MATTER

General properties: All matter has general properties like mass and volume.


Characteristic properties: Properties like odour, colour, shininness and density are characteristic.
