Study Notes

Matter and Its Properties

Matter exists in different forms, each with unique observable properties.
Students can investigate and classify materials based on their properties like color, texture, hardness, and flexibility.
Students can analyze data from material testing to determine which materials are best suited for specific purposes.
Examples of properties for analysis include strength, flexibility, hardness, texture, and absorbency.
Students can observe how objects made of multiple pieces can be disassembled and reassembled into new objects.
Examples of pieces include blocks, building bricks, and other assorted small objects.

Grade Level Expectation

Students will learn about the different properties of matter.
Students will be able to plan and conduct investigations to describe and classify different kinds of materials by their properties.
Students will evaluate properties such as color, texture, hardness, and flexibility.
Students will analyze data to determine the best suited material for a particular purpose.
Students will be able to assess the strength, flexibility, hardness, texture, and absorbency of different materials.
Students will be able to make observations to understand how an object can be disassembled and made into a new object.
