      Love this activity! Great for all types of learners! Visual/Kinestic/Spacial...

    Adaptions: You can adapt this lesson for ELL or special needs students by pairing them in groups and assiging each person in the group a task...the ELL and Special Needs students could draw the pictures or record information while they learning about matter by other group members without pressure/anxiety. Extensions: You can extend this activity to younger greades by using something other than candles. For example, you can use an ice cube, watch it melt, and over time chart the level of water and have the students explain what happenes to the water and the state of matter it has turned into. 6.1.2 Explain the properties of solids, liquids and gases using drawings and models that represent matter as particles in motion whose state can be represented by the relative positions and movement of the particles. 6.1.3 Using a model in which matter is composed of particles in motion, investigate that when substances undergo a change in state, mass is conserved.

      Sticky Note: This would be a great beginning activity to describe the 3 states of matter. Also could be manipulated to be turned into a math activity where students = different fraction lengths (12 kids =1 whole...what would 6 kids equal, etc.)

    2.1.1. Observe, describe and measure ways in which the properties of a sample of water (including volume) change or stay the same as the water is heated and cooled and then transformed into different states.

      2.2.1 "Observe, describe and measure ways in which the properties of a sample of water (including volume) change or stay the same as the water is heated and cooled and then transformed into different states." This activity can be modified for ELL students by having them record drawings during each observation, rather than writing the words for their observations. This would be a great activity for drawing, because each state looks so much different than the others (solid, liquid, and gas). This activity can be adjusted for older grades by having the students do the same activity with predictions at the beginning of the experiment about what they believe will happen. These students could also make other predictions about other types of matter that would react in the same way the juice ice did. For further exploration, these students could then test their hypothesis regarding other objects and their state of matter.

    Students place "juice ice" into baggies and observe the state of the ice at various points in the day. The students then compare the beginning state of the ice with the ending state of the ice. This is a great lesson on solids, liquids, and gasses!

    state standard: 1.1.2 Very simple and hands on activity for the first graders. The good thing about this activity is that you can use pictures with all the words. Not all first graders are able to read all the words, having pictures can be helpful for the low ability students as well as the ESL students.

What Does It Matter? | Education.com - 2 views

      Adaptions: I would make this a cooperative learning assignment putting students into goups and assigning each person a task giving ELL and special need students the task of the recorder or illustrator. Extensions: you can extend this activity to younger grades (5TH AND 4TH) by going over the different states of matter. I found a Bill Nye science video on this topic that would be good for younger students to peak interest and enhance understanding.

    Great 6th grade activity to experiment with matter

      Extensions: Physical Science connects with Math (measurement). Extensions: ESL & Special Ed students can help in preparation process and can taste the fancy meringues. Gifted students can measure ingredients and predict outcome or explain why there is a change in the state of matter.
  •  
    Make Meringue Science! Use simple experiment to turn egg whites into a delicacy: fancy meringues. Supplies: 5 eggs, 1-1/2 cups of sugar, 8 tsp cream of tartar, 2 small bowls, 1 large bowl, hand cranked egg beater, and cookie sheet.

      Great science actiivity for 1st grade
    • Jessica Buell
       
      Adaptions: you can adapt this lesson for ELL or special needs students by introducing a liquid and a solid in a more clear from (ex: using water and ice) until the concept is understood. Then, move on using the gluep. Extensions: You could also do this experiment with 4th graders before you introduce matter to gain an understanding of the three states of matter.

Solids, Liquids, Maple Syrup! | Education.com - 1 views

      ELL and special ed students can be paired with another student to help create a journal of observations with pictures and words dealing with the states of matter. This activity can be used for older grades too. The students could find the densities of the solids and liquids. They could even go so far as to cook a breakfast and discuss liquids to solids as they are cooked.
  •  
    The activity allows students to compare and contrast different solids and liquids. There is also a cooking portion of the activity that can be done with maple syrup.
