7 4. What is the mass of the toy car in the picture below? The mass of the toy car is 35g 5. Using metric units, estimate the length of the pencil in the picture below. 5-6cm 6. Michael and Lily both measure the width of their desk using a straw. Michael found that the width of the desk is 4 straws. Lily found that the width of the desk is 6 straws. Explain why Michael and Lilly got different measurements. Michael and Lilly got different number of straws because their straws are different lengths. _ 152

8 Look at the picture below. 7. The mass of the ball is one of the following measurements. Circle the best answer below. a. 20 g. b. 30 g. c. 40 g. Explain why you chose the answer you did. I chose c because the scale is tilting down where the ball is, which means it is heavier than the other side, and the other side has a mass of 30 g, so the ball must be more than 30g. _ Matter 8. Write a word or phrase that describes matter in the solid state. has definite shape, hard _ 153

9 9. Write a word or phrase that describes matter in the liquid state. takes the shape of it s container, moves, wet _ 10. Write a word or phrase that describes matter in the gas state. invisible, spreads everywhere _ 11. Below is a list of things that are matter and things that are not matter. Put an X next to the things that you think are matter. x rock electricity x air x atoms x apple x orange juice fire heat x water love x ice x helium Explain how you decided whether something is or is not matter. If it has mass and takes up space it is matter 154

10 12. What is all matter made of? atoms 13. A puddle of water on the ground in the morning is gone in the afternoon on a warm, sunny day. What happened to the water in the puddle? the water in the puddle evaporated (went from a liquid to a gas) Why did it happen? the surface of the water heated enough to turn it into a gas 155

66 Picture Book Assignment We ve learned a lot about how matter changes state in Investigation 3! Now we will get creative and show what we know about changes of state. Your goal is to create a picture book that explains with words and pictures how a drop of water or an ice cube goes through 3 of the changes of state we learned about in this investigation. First, chose your main character: Carl the Ice Cube or Dalia the Droplet? Then, draw a picture of what your character looks like. Before you begin writing, outline your story: Which state of matter does your character start as? Which state of matter does your character change into? What change of state occurs? How does this change happen? Which state of matter does your character change into next? What change of state occurs? How does this change happen? Which state of matter does your character change into next? What change of state occurs? How does this change happen? Which state of matter does your character end up as? 211
