Objectives

By the end of the unit, your child will be able to identify liquids, solids, and gases. They will know why the three types of matter are important to our world and how it affects us and our surroundings.

What Your Child Will Be Doing.In this unit our class will be studying how liquid effects its surroundings. Students will be given two different forms of solids and they will place liquids on them. Each day the student will make observations of how the solid and liquid reacts and will record them on the computer.
