This Twilight Science session focuses on Grade 5 Quarter 1 Physical Science.
Through the use of slide deck lessons and activities, videos, reading selections, and other re sources, participants will see examples of models that describe matter as made of particles too small to be seen. Although we do not use the term, Conservation of Matter, this session will examine the concept with demonstrations and activities to help participants understand that the amount of matter is conserved when a substance changes form. Whether it’s a change in state, or dissolving, or a chemical reaction, or any combination of these, the amount of mass will not change. Understanding matter and its physical and chemical properties is necessary to recognize that matter can undergo physical and chemical changes.
