Week 3 Quizlet

Science: We are beginning our unit on Matter and its properties.  We will focus on what matter is, what it isn't, the main states of matter, and changes in states of matter.  Here are some great videos to review for Matter.  

Study Jams Science You will see scrolling topics under science.  Find the one on Matter.  The three videos I suggest are: Properties of Matter, Solids Liquids Gases, and Physical and Chemical Changes in Matter.

Social Studies: We are continuing our unit on Early Explorers and also covering essential map skills, which despite technological advances, really come in good use! Our social studies essay will be due on Thursday. Be as creative in your final project as possible! This is our first display project!
