Phases of Matter: Introduction & Exploration
QUICK VIEW
CW: Collect the data from video, plot the data (connect the dots), add labels (cut to size) above correct area of the chart line, and add illustrations of particles.
DN: Take Chromebook and handouts.
Reminder: Quiz retakes Thursday at Lunch. Must have a completed drawing of the Nitrogen Cycle with explanations what plants, nitrogen-fixing bacteria, denitrifying bacteria, and decomposers do to nitrogen compounds, proteins, and nitrogen gas to retake the quiz.

LESSON OUTLINE
5min Students complete the Do Now by answering the question on the handout.
15min< Students watch video to collect temperature data and observations. Students concurrently graph the data and answer questions between data collection times. (Video is played at double speed to save time.)
5min Class discusses findings and observations on temperature and phase changes.
10min Students create add labels to identify the phases and transitions at each point in the chart.
10min Students add illustrations of the particles for each phases and transition.
5min Clean up. Wrap up.
