6th Grade Science Class

In class today the students finished reading the articles in the current science magazine and completing the skillbuilder worksheet. Next the students were given a list of matter and had to figure out if the matter was going through a physical change or a chemical change. As a class we went over the answers to that activity. Then the students in groups read a short book "Matter Matter Everywhere" and answered ten questions that went along with the book. We went over the answers to the questions in some classes; in other classes we will do that activity tomorrow. Tomorrow we will start working out of "Focus on State Standards: Physical and Chemical Changes" Packet. The students will also have a homework assignment on the changing states of matter.
