= Use this page, 8th Graders, during the States of Matter chapter =



Lesson 1: Solids, Liquids, and Gases ** By the end of Lesson 1, you should understand: ** how particles move in solids, liquids, and gaseshow the forces between particles differ in solids, liquids, and gasesexamples of each state of matter

** Lesson 1 vocab: ** solidliquidviscositysurface tensiongasvapor

Lesson 2: Changes in State ** By the end of Lesson 2, you should understand: ** how temperature is related to particle motionhow temperature and thermal energy are differentwhat happens to thermal energy when matter changes from one state to another

** Lesson 2 vocab: ** kinetic energytemperaturethermal energyvaporizationevaporationcondensationsublimationdeposition DAILY ASSIGNMENTS: Due to copyright laws, I am not able to link photocopied worksheets to this site. Some sheets that I have created are here.

** Helpful links or videos: I will be posting videos of lectures, demonstrations, etc. as well as videos that I did not create. **

 * Kinetic, Thermal, and Potential Energy || media type="custom" key="21446818" || Forgive me, students. This was my first attempt at a lecture video. Yes, it's really boring. Yes, I talk really, really slowly. Yes, I make a whole bunch of mistakes. Yes, you still need to view it and use it for your notes. ||
 * Charles's Law, changes in volume with changed temperature || media type="custom" key="21613230" || Notice what happens to the volume of the balloon when its temperature is decreased and then again when its temperature is allowed to increase. ||
 * Boyle's Law, change in volume with changes in pressure || media type="custom" key="21613358" || Balloons, peeps, and shaving cream ||
