Ms. Starling's CHALLENGE: Make up a fiction Science Story that involves at least 10 of these definitions! Illustrate your story!
Key Content Vocabulary:
- Boiling point – the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a gas; for water this temperature is 100°C
- Celsius – the international scale of measurement for temperature
- Conductor – a substance or object that allows energy to flow through it easily
- Dissolving – the process by which substances breakdown into small pieces and spread evenly in liquid (water)
- Electrical energy – energy that is absorbed or delivered by an electric circuit
- Insulator – a substance or object that does not allow energy to flow through it easily
- Magnetism – a force of attraction that causes a magnetic material to move
- Mass – the amount of matter in something
- Matter – anything that has mass and takes up space
- Melting / freezing point – the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a solid or a solid to a liquid by the loss or addition of heat; for water this temperature is 0°C
- Mixture – a combination of two or more substances that can be easily separated in some physical way
- Physical properties – properties of matter that can be observed, measured, or changed without changing the matter itself
- Properties – characteristics used to identify matter
- Relative density – floating or sinking when compared to water
- Solubility – the ability of a substance to dissolve in another substance, such as sugar dissolving in water
- Solution – a type of mixture in which the particles of one or more substances are uniformly dispersed (spread out) throughout another substance
- Temperature – a way of measuring how hot or cold something is; temperature is measured using either the Fahrenheit (F) or Celsius (C) scale
- Thermal / heat energy – energy related to the temperature of an object or a substance
- Volume – the amount of space that a substance or object takes up.

- Explore density at home: Fill up a cup with water. Does a raw egg float or sink? Add salt to the water until the egg floats. How does this affect density? Record your findings!
- Make another density tower! Show your parents, siblings, or friends!
