Big Ideas
- Matter can be sorted and described by its physical properties, helping us understand the world around us.
- Objects have different textures, flexibility, and temperatures, which can be observed and used to classify them as solids or liquids.
Essential Questions
- What physical properties can we use to describe and classify matter?
- How do you know if something is a solid or a liquid?
- Why is it important to observe and compare the texture, flexibility, and temperature of materials?
- How can sorting materials by their properties help us in everyday life?
- What are some examples of solids and liquids that you use every day?
