Compare and contrast basic properties of solids, liquids, and gases Connect embedded FS integration to science hands-on upcoming activities.

13 What is Matter? Matter is everything around you, including you!
Look around the classroom. Everything, from the clothes you are wearing to the air you breath is matter. Matter is what all objects are made of. Matter is All Around Us (song) Name a type of matter you see. How do we tell the difference between the matter around us? Engage: Read the opening to a book What is Matter? or a similar book on matter. Ask the essential question: what is matter and click on the hyperlink: Matter. Tell students to watch the video to learn more about matter. explain: Discuss what is matter and then show facts from the slide about matter. Explore: Click on the additional links as you move through the slide. Students in grades 2 – 5 can do the song: Matter is All Around Us Have students define matter and draw examples in their notebooks. Engage for the next slide: Ask students to think about: How do we tell the difference between the matter around us?

14 All Matter has Properties.
What are properties? Properties are the characteristics of matter that can be observed. What does it mean to observe? To observe an object means to carefully explore all of its properties. Explore/Explain: Tell students you want them to watch a video to what else they can learn about properties of matter. Click on the hyperlink Properties- (Discovery Ed. Matter Can video). Then call on student volunteers to share one thing that they learned or one thing that they remember from the video. Record their responses on the board and students can keep of list of properties in their notebooks. Add new properties to chart as you encounter them. Extension Hands-on Activity: Prepare a “Property Bag” ahead of time with (non sharp) objects. (Examples: feathers, coins, rocks, marbles, erasers, seashells, small rubber toys, foam shapes, fabric - velvet, corduroy, denim, and so on.) Choose a student to come up and reach into the bag and choose an object without showing the other students. Have them describe the properties of the object they have chosen. When they are done, have the class guess what the object is before it is revealed. If no one guesses, all the objects in the bag can be shown and the clues given again.Then show the object to the class to see if they guessed correctly. This can be set up as a station.

15 Look for words that describe properties of matter as you read.
Explore and explain: Pass out passage and have students read it with the purpose of Look for words that describe properties of matter. Last ask how can we tell the difference between types of matter? (Studying matters properties ) Give an example, baseball vs rock or water vs oil You can change this passage to another based on your grade level. This is grade 2. See slide enclosed that lists resources for additional passages for various grade levels. Make a list in your notebook. What other properties can you name? Add them.

16 How do we study properties of matter?
We use our Senses (K-5) Sight - Looks Color Shape Size Touch – Feels (texture) Hear – Sounds when dropped Smell – Odor Taste Eyes Hands and Fingers Ears Nose Mouth Ask students: What can we use to tell objects apart? After discussion click on the hyperlink: ( ) Ask students what they learned or remember from the video. Display a senses anchor chart. If you don’t have one have students help you create one. Students can create one in their notebooks. What else can students do?( a foldable, poster…) You can give every group a button or another small object. Ask them to use their senses to tell about its properties: color, shape, (number of holes), size and sounds when dropped. to observe properties of matter

17 Explore: Give each student a small piece of fruit to observe and record observations on this lab sheet. Have students share out their observations. Start this 5 senses a class chart using words from students fruit observations. Add students senses words as they do observations. Department of Science

18 We use our senses to tell about an object’s properties.
Looks Shape - round like a sphere Feels Texture – fuzzy color – yellow green Sounds bouncy -thump, thump Students need experience observing properties. Point our the Properties and Senses anchor charts on display. Show students a few objects from the classroom providing them with examples such as a tennis ball. Ask what can you observe using your senses? Record their responses on the board. What can you see? I can see that this tennis ball is yellow and it is round. What can you feel? It feels fuzzy. What else can we observe about this tennis ball using another sense? It makes a thumping sound when I bounce it. Add property words to the chart. Ask: What kind of properties are these? Qualitative Smells Odor - musty Properties of a Tennis Ball

19 What else can we use to help observe properties?
Measurement Tools (2-5) Properties Ruler length Tape measure length Measuring cup volume Graduated cylinder volume Balance mass Thermometer temperature Explain: Ask: What kind of properties are these? Quantitative Why?

20 What are my Properties? Choose an object from your table tray to observe using your senses and measurement tools. Write its name and properties in your notebook. Looks Length Feels Mass Sounds when Other(s) dropped Odor Explore/Explain: Ask again what do we use to tell an object’s properties? Show students a variety of objects, and follow the same procedure in order to help them understand each object’s unique properties and characteristics. Extension Hands-on Activity: Prepare a “Property Bag” ahead of time with (non sharp) objects. (Examples: feathers, coins, rocks, marbles, erasers, seashells, small rubber toys, foam shapes, fabric - velvet, corduroy, denim, and so on.) Choose a student to come up and reach into the bag and choose an object without showing the other students. Have them describe the properties of the object they have chosen. When they are done, have the class guess what the object is before it is revealed. If no one guesses, all the objects in the bag can be shown and the clues given again. Then show the object to the class to see if they guessed correctly. This can be set up as a station.

22 How Can We Sort? We can use our senses to classify matter in different ways. We can group matter by how it feels. Some matter may feel hard or bumpy. We can group matter by shape. Matter can have many different shapes. (Gr. 1 Scott Foresman Quick Study) How can we sort these buttons? We can sort by color: blue - red – green – yellow Matter can be different colors. We can sort by size: small - medium – large Matter can be different sizes. Session 3 – Engage: Ask students their ideas about sorting. Then click on the hyperlink to watch the video, How Can We Sort? to see what else they can learn. Have them share out something they learned or remember from the video. Ask them if they see any charts on display that will help them sort. Discuss how to sort the buttons on the page. Sorting Discovery resources: There are many ways to sort. small

23 Practicing Science Sort, Group, Classify
Observe the school supplies in your basket. Make a data chart to list the properties observed and measured in your notebook. Decide on a way to sort your objects. Sort the objects. Name your groups. Talk about why you classified them as you did. Can you sort your objects in another way? Try it. Engage: Click on the hyperlink Sort, Group, Classify . For more examples on how to sort in more than one way. Explore: Explore Activity: Ask students to sort objects in their desks. Have them sort objects by the characteristics of: category, purpose, and size. Ask students to explain in their own words how they decided to sort each of the objects. Extension: Have students work in groups to sort a variety of objects from the classroom by their properties they determine: (Examples: art supplies, blocks, buttons, or toys) Place a set of objects on a tray or in a large baggy- one per group). Students who struggle can sort them by categories you give to them. Here are additional Discovery Education resources that are hyperlinked: Video: Different Ways to Sort and Group Video: Sorting by More than One Attribute Video: Using Your Senses goes with sorting Print resource: Many Ways to Sort Explain/Evaluate: Test their knowledge by asking them to explain how they are sorting the objects. What characteristics are you using to sort the objects? How are the objects similar? How are the objects different?  Make sure students understand the concept thoroughly, giving them a chance to explain each of their choices in as much detail as possible. Record their answers in order to evaluate.

24 Matter Jeopardy Game Rules
Select an object you observed. List both qualitative and quantitative properties (begin with the most obvious properties). Give descriptions to other group as they try to guess the object based on its properties. What is my matter? Qualitative Properties: (uses five senses) Texture: smooth and hard Shape: long cylinder Other: Not magnetic Quantitative properties: (Uses measurement tools) Mass: 10 g Length: 14 cm What is a marker?

25 Practicing Science: Teacher Reflection
How did you see the Florida Standards being integrated in the hands-on activities? Participant Feedback: Have them share out with the whole group. Division of Academics - Department of Science

26 How else can the Florida Standards be infused into the Science Curriculum?

27 Overall Driving Question: How can we support our students in crafting evidence based arguments in science and across the curriculum? Integration of Florida Standards through a Claims, Evidence and Reasoning (CER) SHAMWOW Video 10:10-10:50 – slides Helping students succeed—Before they write Talk about why you’re using the CER framework: This is how you make an argument or explanation convincing. This is what scientists do. Explain each part. What does Vince want you to do? Why is Vince so convincing? Write down all the evidence that Vince uses to convince you to buy Sham Wow.

28 Claim: You should buy a Sham Wow because it absorbs
water better than any other towel. Evidence: Does not drip. Holds 20 times it’s weight in liquid. Absorbs all liquid from a carpet. What more could Vince do to convince you that you should buy Sham Wow? (Hint: think like a science teacher) Let’s make Vince’s presentation even better and add the reasoning to his evidence. Reasoning: The Sham Wow towel works so well because it contains micro fibers. Micro fiber towels are made from two synthetic (man made) materials, usually nylon and polyester. The fibers are treated with chemicals and mechanically changed to make them very small, smaller than 1/100th the diameter of a human hair. This gives the towel a lot of surface area to make contact with the spill and absorb the liquid. The tiny fibers get into small places where most towel fibers cannot reach. Source: 10:10-10:50 – slides Explain each part… The evidence includes the clues: the observations made and the data collected.

29 Claim Claims are the statements that answer your original question.
The claim must be accurate, specific, and answer the question. The claim is usually one sentence in length. Explain each part… The evidence includes the clues: the observations made and the data collected.

30 Evidence The evidence is all the scientific data that supports your claim. This data helps to answer the question or problem that the students are examining. It can come from a variety of sources such as: lab investigation, textbook, reading selections, videos, news reports, class notes, etc. It should include both qualitative and quantitative data. It is important to have numerous pieces of evidence in order to prove your claim. Explain each part… The evidence includes the clues: the observations made and the data collected.

31 Reasoning Reasoning is the explanation that connects your claim to the evidence that supports it or why you think your claim (answer to the question) is correct. It is the justification that shows why the data is relevant and should be used to support the claim as evidence. It shows a detailed understanding of the scientific principles involved and uses correct science vocabulary. This explanation acts as a conclusion. If evidence is from an experiment, it can be the “conclusion” of the lab. It is usually several sentences in length. Explain each part… Reasoning is why the scientists think their answer is correct. Scientists explain how the evidence helps answer the question. Students should look to include reasoning, scientific principles, and vocabulary in this section. Students should use their own background knowledge in order to link the claim to the evidence.

32 Progression for Argumentation K-12
Grade Argumentation Focus K-2 Claim + Evidence Claim – Make conclusions from investigations. Evidence – Use observations from investigations. 3-5 Claim + Evidence + Reasoning Claim – Make conclusions. Evidence - Use observations and measurements. Reasoning – Provide a simple connection between claim and evidence using the big ideas they have learned in science. 6-8 Claim + Evidence + Reasoning (greater complexity) Evidence - Use observations and measurements. Distinguish between appropriate and inappropriate data. Consider sufficiency of evidence. Reasoning – Provide a justification for why the evidence supports the claim using scientific principles. 9-12 Claim + Evidence + Reasoning + Rebuttal Reasoning – Provide a justification for why the evidence supports the claim using scientific principles. Each piece of evidence may have a different justification. Rebuttal – Describe why a counter-claim is not appropriate by critiquing the alternative evidence and reasoning. Discuss.

33 Claim Evidence (CE) Assignment: Think like a scientist to write an answer to this question: How do you learn about the properties of objects? Claim: (A sentence that states how you learn about properties of objects.) Evidence: (Examples (data) of what you did to learn about properties of objects.) Ask students how they think they should get started. Go to next slide: Getting started.

34 Division of Academics - Department of Science
Getting Started First think about: What is a possible claim? Where can you find your evidence (data)? Where can you find science and other words to help you write? What science words will you want to include? Use your resources: Science notebook Observations from hands-on activities and videos Reading passages Your textbook Classroom charts, word walls and bulletin boards Ask students how they think they should get started. Ask what is a possible claim? I use my senses to learn about properties of objects. Ask students what resources they have that will help them? If necessary, point out the anchor charts, word walls, and notes / activities in their science notebooks. Say let’s see how a textbook page can help. See next slide. Division of Academics - Department of Science

35 Division of Academics - Department of Science
Writing Scaffolds Sentence Starters: My evidence to support my claim is… The data… According to the text… On page ___, it said … For instance… From the reading, I know that… The graphic showed… For example… My evidence supports my claim because.. Writing Words: “Uncertainty” words: usually, generally, suggests, indicates Sequencing words: first, second, third, next, last Therefore Because If… Then… However Division of Academics - Department of Science

36 You can look for help in your textbook. Let’s read.
Science words Claim: I use my senses to… Evidence I can see … I can feel… Have students read under Properties of Matter to find help with the claim. Then click☐

37 CE Samples Claim: I use my senses to observe properties of objects.
Evidence: Properties of my eraser Looks Color – pink Shape – rectangle like Feels – smooth - bends Drop and hear – thump, thump Smells - rubbery Claim: I can use my senses to observe properties of objects. Evidence: My eraser’s properties - First I used my eyes to look. My eraser’s color is pink. Its shape is like a box. Next I used my hands to feel it. It is smooth. It can bend. I smell it with my nose. It smells like rubber. Then I used my ears to describe the sound it made when I dropped it. It bounced a little and sounded like a thump, thump.

38 Gr. 2 CER Sample Claim: I know I can use my senses to learn about properties of objects. Evidence: Pencil’s properties: Color: blue and yellow Shape: long and round like a can with one end sharpened and the other end with an eraser. Feels: smooth and hard One end feels sharp and the other end feels rubbery. Sounds when dropped: plop, plop Smell: woody Reasoning: Here is how I used my senses to observe my pencil’s properties. First I used my eyes to look at my pencil. I can see my pencil’s color is blue with yellow stars. Its shape is long and round like a can. I can see one end is sharpened with a point. Next I used my hands to feel it. It feels smooth and hard. Then I used my ears to describe the sound it made when I dropped it. It sounded like a plop, plop. Last I used my nose to smell it. It smells like wood. My pencil like all objects have properties that I can observe with my senses.

39 3-5 Claim-Evidence-Reasoning (CER)
Assignment: What properties can be used to classify your school supplies? Claim: My school supplies can be classified by their mass, length, shape, texture, and attraction to magnets. Evidence: (Record all the evidence you gathered from hands-on investigations). Data: School Supplies Observations Table School Supplies/Qty. Mass Length Shape Texture Magnetic? Pencil (1) 5 grams 16 cm Hexagonal prism smooth/hard part Scissor (1) 26 grams 13 cm Irregular Smooth/hard Crayon (1) 4 grams 9 cm cylinder No Marker (1) 10 grams Glue stick (1) 16 grams 8 cm You will also communicate what you know by making a scientific explanation. When you make a scientific explanation, be sure to include what your question is the evidence that helps  answer your question, your claim, or what you think the answer is, your reasoning, or  why you think the answer is correct.

40 3-5 Claim-Evidence-Reasoning (CER) SC. 3. P. 8. 1, SC. 4. P. 8. 2, SC
3-5 Claim-Evidence-Reasoning (CER) SC.3.P.8.1, SC.4.P.8.2, SC.5.P.8.2: Observe and measure objects by their properties. Reasoning: (Write a statement that explains why you think your claim or answer to the question is right.) My school supplies can be classified by their mass, length, shape, texture, and attraction to magnets. As a result of measuring my supplies I learned some are greater in mass than others. For example, two of the five objects had a mass of less than 10 grams compared to the other three objects that were up to 26 grams. Next using my senses of sight and touch, I discovered that I could not sort my objects by texture. They were all smooth and hard. However, the objects could be classified by shape such as regular versus irregular. Some had parts that were magnetic. My evidence supports my claim because objects and materials can be compared to one another based on their observable properties. You will also communicate what you know by making a scientific explanation. When you make a scientific explanation, be sure to include what your question is, the evidence that helps  answer your question, your claim, or what you think the answer is, your reasoning, or  why you think the answer is correct.

41 Matter CER Questions How do you learn about matter?
How do scientists study the properties of matter? How do scientists describe the basic properties of matter? What are the basic properties that scientists use to describe matter? How can we tell the differences between types of matter? How do people use the properties of matter? What are some ways that a substance’s properties depend on its state? How do we know matter is all around us? What characteristics of solids, liquids and gases are alike and different?

43 Effective Science Strategy
When can the Claims Evidence and Reasoning (CER) strategy be used during your science lesson? Have participants think pair share.

44 When can a CER be used? Use it to engage in structured, argumentation to explain a scientific concept. Use it after an experiment to explain why a hypothesis was proven correct or not. Use it to justify an answer choice for a multiple (FCAT type) test question is correct. Use it to discuss claims made in videos, commercials, documentaries or news reports.

45 Claim, Evidence, Reasoning after Viewing a Video, News Report or a Documentary
What key points did you learn from this video? What is the scientific explanation? What vocabulary words are connected to the lesson? What is the claim the reporter is making? What evidence does he or she cite in the report that supports that claim?
