We will be:
• Engaging: Be excited
• Exploring: Use things to discover with
• Explaining: Write about what you discover
• Extending: thinking how this new information can be used in the real world
• Evaluating: testing our new knowledge
That is what real scientists do: they discover new things and show us what is already
around us.
You should have a digital notebook or spiral notebook and pencil for each of your
Lessons.
To do experiments you can use things found around the house.
Generally we will read about a subject and then explore the things that we can.
Sometimes there will be vocabulary words that you need to know. These words can be
written in your notebook and you may need to use a dictionary to find the definition.
We will learn about Earth Science, Physical Science and Life Science. Each type will
give us information about our world and things around us.
In your first Science Lesson you will become familiar with the form for Experiments and
recognize the steps to follow in completing an experiment. Your teacher will give you
several vocabulary terms for you to write in your notebook.
Follow your teachers’ instructions as to where to find the definitions for these vocabulary
terms, then copy them into your notebook.
Have you ever wondered what scientists do? Have you ever wondered about your world?
What interests you the most…weather, technology, earth or live things? There are
scientists that look very carefully at our world. They have gone to the bottom of the
oceans and into outer space. Almost verything around you has been studied by scientists
with curious minds. When they wonder about things they begin to do things to find
answers to their questions.
Your first Lesson is to learn the terms that are used in an experiment.

Lesson 2
What do we call “things” around us?
In this Lesson you will observe everything around you and ask yourself, “Is everything that
I see considered matter”? You will learn to classify and identify these things.
What do you see around you? There are things. What do scientists call the things around
you? They identify them as matter.
The things you took out of the bag earlier, you could only identify by touch at first. When
you took them out you could see them. What was alike about them? They all were
formed from matter. Some were hard and some were soft. What you could not identify by
touch was the color.
One thing that is all around you is air. You cannot really touch it or see it but you know it
is there. Is air matter too? That is the question that you can do a simple experiment to
find the answer.

Lesson 3
Properties of Matter
Student Assignment: In today’s Lesson we are going to learn the ways to identify matter
via their properties.
A property is how an object looks, feels, acts or smells. The properties of matter
describe its color, texture, shape, size and hardness.
If your eyes were closed and you were asked to tell which of two things was a lemon and
you were given a banana and a lemon. You would probably be able to smell the sour fruit.
Now how about the buoyancy of something? What is it? How would you test for the
buoyancy of something? If you have not looked this word up yet it is time to do so. Write
the word in your science notebook and copy the definition.
Now you are looking for matter that can float. The easiest thing to float things in is water.
Look at the picture in this Lesson. Can you identify the things that are showing
buoyancy? Now you try to float some things. Get something that is plastic and
something that is equal in size but made of a solid material like metal. Put them in the
water and watch what happens. What happened and why?

Are there some ways we can use our knowledge of matter? Think about some of your
sports equipment. Would it be all right to have a glass baseball? I think not! It would be
too brittle, breakable and would shatter when hit by a bat. Make a list of things that would
be USELESS ITEMS. After each thing you think of write down the properties that make it
useless. Use your notebook to write of five or six things. Write down the properties that
make the object useless.
Now review: What is matter? What are the properties that identify matter?
Lesson Wrap Up: You looked more carefully at the properties of matter and also
practiced with buoyancy as one of those properties.
