Solid–definite shape and volume–think about an ice cube, as a solid the shape is set and so you can’t increase the space they take up Liquid–no definite shape, but definite volume–think about a can of soda when you pour it into a glass it doesn’t have the same shape as the can, but the amount of soda was the same in the can as it is now in the glass Gas–no definite shape or volume–think about a balloon the gas from your lungs take on the shape of the balloon and you can twist and turn that balloon into dozen of shapes. Also you can put the balloon in the freezer and the (size) volume decreases and if you put it in the oven the volume (size) increases

Solids Liquids and Gases
October 11 - October 15
Monday - Today was a busy day. We finished figuring out our Mystery Mixtures, we reviewed solids, Liquids and Gases, and composed songs and album covers, starting to prepare for our very own Glee show about solids liquids and gases.
Tuesday - Another busy day! We shared our S-L-G songs Glee style! The video is awesome! The students who completed this should be proud! We also we introduced to our new BFF...Dmetri Mendeleev, and attempted to sort and catagorize elements from the periodic table. We will continue this organization tomorrow.
Wednesday - We continued to organize the Periodic Table just like Mendeleev did, and many students were able to recognize the patterns with in.
Thursday - We talked about elements and began to talk about compounds. Also took a pop quiz to be sure that students were doing their reading homework. Chapter 7 should be read by now :o)
Friday - We did part one of the chemical reactions lab. Some groups need to work on precision when measuring. All in all we had some pretty great results. Each also chose their element for the element project. Research for this will be on Monday and Tuesday with Mini's and laptops.
