The hands-on lessons in this unit have been developed and adapted to meet the above standards. The students will explore and extend their prior knowledge throughout the unit. The following information is adapted from the information given to K-3 teachers from the OPPS Workshop. Solids Solids are alike in some of their properties, e.g. they all have definite shapes. Solids may differ one from another in other properties, e.g. odor, color, density, conductivity, solubility, melting point, etc.
Liquids Liquids are alike in some properties, e.g. they take the shape of their container.
Liquids may differ from one another in other properties, e.g. odor, color, density, boiling point, freezing point, etc. After going through the routine of the game a few times as a class, then set it up in a learning station. Do not mix liquids. If you color the liquids with food coloring you may use them more than once. Label the jars.
