Exploring matter's physical properties




We had this Friday exploring matter's physical properties! Students, what have you learned so far?

  1. I learned that air takes up space. I liked the experiment where we used a straw to blow air into a bag and the one where we put the paper towel inside the cup and turned it upside down. It did not get wet when we put it in the water because the air bubble kept the water from coming in.

  2. i liked the one with the paper towel and the water color because if you stick it up side down it will not get wet because of the air bubble.

  4. I learned that air DOES take up space.
    If you breath air you can't see it so you think air doesn't take up space.
    But on the activity we tried with blowing up the plastic baggy, I saw that the baggy was getting fat,so I predict the air/gas in my breath was causing it to be fatter.
    I knew that in my schemea that in winter when I breath outside the air/gas that comes out of my mouth/lungs is causing the white swifty thingamajig to form.
    I am glad I gleaned more information about air and how it DOES take up space!
    I am doing METACOGNITION!!!! *o*
