1. Warm-up
Be ready for class-pencil, notebook, read agenda and new matter learning objectives.
Predict: What is Matter?
What are some of the components in the following items: loaf of bread, textbook, bicycle.
*Can you break down any of the components even further?
For example, one of the components of a book is obviously paper, but what are the components of paper? Record your thoughts in your science notebook/binder.
DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT C6H12O6 is?

2. Warm-up
Copy homework in agenda and pick up Reading Volume homework on top of the bin.
Explain in your own words: What is matter? What is volume? Draw a picture demonstrating you know what volume is using the correct metric units.

3. Warm-up
Take out your homework and review it for accuracy. Write today’s homework in your agenda
In your notebook/binder set up the volume quick lab and list the steps to find the volume of a marble using the water displacement method.

4. Warm-up Write your homework in your agenda.
Take out your matter notes packet and answer (use notes if needed) the essential questions involving our objectives (at the last part of the notes).

5. The Properties of Matter
Essential Questions: What is Matter? What is mass? What is volume?

6. Objectives Describe the two properties of all matter.
Identify the units used to measure volume and mass.
Distinguish between mass and weight.

7. Matter Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space.
They are all made-up of MATTER!
What do all these things have in common?
Matter
Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space.
It’s that simple!
Everything in the universe that you can see is made up of some type of matter.

8. What is matter? Anything that has mass and takes up space
Everything you see: boats, cars, people
Some things you cannot see like air

9. Quick Lab (1) Material Getter beaker Cup Paper towel
(2) Discussion Leader
BEFORE EXPERIMENT: What do you expect the paper towel to be like when it comes out of the bowl?
AFTER EXPERIMENT: Was the paper towel like how you expected? Draw conclusions as to why the paper is the way it is? How can you support this idea with science.
(3) Lab Initiator
Wedge the paper towel in the bottom of the cup. All of the paper towel should be mashed in the bottom of the cup, with no edges sticking out.
Place the cup upside down, perpendicular to the surface of the water.
Do not tilt the cup or place it at an angle.
Push the cup into the water until the rim of the cup touches the bottom of the bowl. Whole group: Countdown from 8.
(4) Data Collector
Describe the paper towel before and after the experiment.

10. Quick Lab Review
Can water and air both occupy the inside of a cup at the same time?
As a lab group, review the results from your experiment.
Continue your discussion on why the towel was the way it was AFTER your experiment. Can you now use science to support why the towel was dry?
Teacher shows what happens if there is a place for matter to escape.

11. Matter and Volume:
The amount of space taken up, or occupied, by an object is known as the objects volume.
Liquid Volume Liters (L) and milliliters (mL) are the units used most often to express the volume of liquids.
Measuring the Volume of Liquids -We will use a graduated cylinder instead of a measuring cup to measure the volume of liquids. The curve at the
surface of liquid is called a
meniscus.

12. What is Volume? The space taken up by an object.
Two objects cannot share the same space.
Ex: Air and Water in the quick lab
What is
Volume?

13. Read the bottom of the curve for accuracy
Graduated cylinders and beakers. Liquid in these have a meniscus curved water line
Read the bottom of the curve for accuracy
What materials
are used to
measure volume?

14. Define and Draw the meaning of: Meniscus
Meniscus is the curve at the surface of liquid.
Draw:
Meniscus

15. Liters (l) and milliliters (ml)
What unit is
Used to
Measure
liquid
volume?
Liters (l) and milliliters (ml)

16. Volume of a Regularly Shaped Solid Object The volume of any solid object is expressed in cubic units. The word cubic means having three dimensions.
Volume of an Irregularly Shaped Solid Object You can measure the volume of any solid object by measuring the volume of water that the object displaces.

17. Multiply the three dimensions of the object
volume = length x width x height or v = l x w x h
units used will be cubic meters (m3) or cubic centimeters (cm3)
How is the Volume
of a Regularly
Shaped object found?

18. How is the volume of an Irregularly shaped object found?
Water displacement
method drop an object in a
known volume of water
(30 ml) the water level will rise
(40 ml) The difference
between the 2 levels
represents the volume of
the object: 40 – 30 = 10ml
1 ml = 1 cm3 both can represent volume
Almost always liquids in ml and solids in cm3

19. Quick Lab In your Science binder, start a new page titled:
Quick Lab. Finding the Volume of an Irregular Object.
Using what you have learned today, set-up a quick lab that allows you to measure the volume of the marbles at your table.
WHAT WERE YOUR RESULTS?

20. Mass and Weight Mass: Weight: force exerted on an object.
Mass is the amount of “stuff”in an object.
Weight:
Weight is a measure of the gravitational
force exerted on an object.

21. Measuring Mass and Weight
Mass Measurement:
The SI unit of mass is the kilogram (kg), but mass is often expressed in grams (g) and
milligrams (mg), too.
Weight Measurement:
Weight is a measure of gravitational force and is expressed in the SI unit of force, the newton (N).

22. What is the difference between mass and weight? video
Mass will stay the same for an object at any location
Mass measures an objects amount of matter
Measured in grams (g) or kilograms (kg)
Weight changes due to gravity’s force and distance of celestial body Planets, stars, etc.
Measured in Newtons and pounds
What is the
difference
between
mass and
weight? video

24. Review Objectives Describe the three properties of all matter.
All matter has mass, volume and weight
Identify the units used to measure volume and mass.
The unit for Volume = milliliter (ml) or
cubic centimeter (cm3)
The unit for Mass = kilogram (kg), gram (g), and
milligram (mg)
Distinguish between mass and weight.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object.
Weight is the gravitational force on an object.

25. UNRAVEL Number the paragraphs
Underline the title
Number the paragraphs
Read the questions (before reading the passage)
Are important words circled?
Venture through/explore the passage
Eliminate wrong answers
Look back for answers

26. Annotated reading assignment w/questions
Students work in partners, one reads while the other annotates:
Circle or underline words you do not understand.
Write any questions in the margins
After reading one paragraph students stop, discuss and summarize, especially if there are words or phrases circled/questions in margins
For each paragraph switch jobs.
After all of reading and discussion is complete begin questions. Take turns recording answers in space provided. Highlight the answer in the text and notate on the answer paragraph # and sentence # where found.
