This week, we will be finishing up physical and chemical changes. Then, students will be reviewing what they learned last year in 5th grade about density. We will learn more about density and how to calculate it for various objects. We will also review how to measure mass and volume. In class, students will be working with groups to complete different activities that explore these properties and the ones we discussed last week. We will also learn how to find the volume of an irregular shaped object by using water displacement. We will be working in our ISN's to take good notes and organize our info. Students will not receive a new vocab list for this unit. They already have all the vocab words on their "properties of matter" list. Students will have a Mass, Volume, and Density worksheet to complete at the end of the week. This worksheet is designed to help students understand the relationship between these traits. This will be done in class on Friday and sent home to be finished if necessary. Links to Check Out

This week in science, we will be talking about physical and chemical changes. We will review what we already know about distinguishing between a physical and chemical change and dig a little deeper with new information about chemical changes. Students will work with their groups to identify, observe, and measure evidence of a chemical changes during class labs and activities. They will work together to evaluate their evidence and figure out the identify of an unknown substance based on what they already know. We will complete several notes pages in our journals and get some new vocabulary definitions as well. They will not receive a printed vocab list for this unit. They will take vocab notes in their journals during class. As always, let me know if you have questions! TEKS: 6.5D Vocab:
