Solid Liquid Gas
Solid solidification Liquid Gas
Changes of State Solidification (freezing) – when a liquid turns into a solid (because the particles slow down and lose/release energy)
Solid solidification Liquid Gas
Solid solidificationfusion Liquid Gas
Fusion (melting) – when a solid turns into a liquid (because the particles gain energy and move faster)
Solid solidificationfusion Liquid Gas

Condensation – when a gas turns into a liquid (because the particles slow down and lose/release energy)

Sublimation – when a gas turns into a solid or a solid turns into a gas without turning into a liquid.
Discuss changes the students have seen in their everyday lives – e.g. “sweat” on cold drinks, snow melting, opening the freezer door and seeing “steam”, “steam” from the river in the fall, etc.
