Solids, Liquids and Gases

 In science we have been learning about Solids, Liquids and Gases.
We made posters for different examples of solids, liquids and gases.

 We have been learning how the molecules in a solid are packed together very tightly so that they will always return to their original shape.





 The molecules in a liquid are not packed together so tightly so it will always take the shape of it's container. The molecules in gas are not held together at all, so they will spread freely unless they are held in a container.

We are learning to write a scientific report using the three variables:
Independent variable- What is one thing I will change?

Dependent variable-What will I measure?
Control Variable- What will I keep the same?

  1. It is fantastic to have a blog tell about what you are learning.You have explained the molecular structure of the different states in a way that is really easy to understand.
