Unit 1: Matter
STANDARD: S8P1 Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about the structure and properties of matter.
ELEMENT: S8P1.c Plan and carry out investigations to compare and contrast chemical (i.e., reactivity, combustibility) and physical (i.e., density, melting point, boiling point) properties of matter.
LEARNING TARGETS:
- I can identify physical and chemical properties of matter. (Knowledge)
- I can compare and contrast chemical and physical properties of matter. (Reasoning)
- I can demonstrate/prove/model that changing the physical properties of matter does not change the identity of the substance. (Reasoning)
- I can plan and carry out investigations to compare and contrast chemical and physical properties of matter. (Skill)
- I can communicate data from investigations to provide evidence of chemical and physical properties of matter. (Product)
