6.2: Matter & Energy 3 Dimensions & Progressions

Unit 3

STANDARD 6.2.2 & 6.2.3

● 6.2.2 Develop a model to predict the effect of heat energy on states of matter and density . Emphasize the arrangement of particles in states of matter (solid, liquid or gas) and during phase changes (melting, freezing, condensing, and evaporating.) MS-PS1-4 ● 6.2.3 Plan and carry out an investigation to determine the relationship between temperature changes and varying types or amounts of matter . Emphasize recording and evaluating data, and communicating the results of the investigation. MS-PS1-4

CONCEPTS

SKILLS

● States of Matter ● Properties of Matter

● Develop a Model ● Predict ● Plan Investigation

● Effect of Heat on States of Matter ● Particle arrangement in Different States of Matter

● Carry out Investigation ● Determine Relationships ● Record Data ● Evaluate Data ● Communicate results

LEARNING PROGRESSION

● Matter comes in different forms (solid, liquid, gas, plasma) ● Each form of matter has different properties ● Properties of matter change with heat energy ● Model VOCABULARY ● Volume ● Mass ● Density ● Condensation ● Solid ● Gas ● Liquid

● Evaporation ● Freezing ● Melting

POSSIBLE PHENOMENA

● Phase change from ice to water to steam ● A basketball loses its bounce when it is left out in the cold. ● Food coloring moves differently in hot water than cold water. ● Chocolate chips get soft if you hold them in your hand for a few minutes.
