Students investigate the similarities
and differences in a variety of common solids and liquids. First,
they observe, describe, and compare a collection of solid objects,
focusing on such properties as color, shape, texture, and hardness.
They also perform tests to determine whether the objects roll or
stack and float or sink, as well as whether they are attracted to a
magnet. Investigations of liquids center on how various liquids look
and feel, their fluidity, how they mix with water, and their degree
of absorption. In a final lesson, students compare the properties of
solids and liquids and identify how they are similar and different.
