matter

From a pea to a planet, matter is found everywhere. Learn all about the stuff that makes up everything with mass, from its atomic structure to how atomic movement causes changes in its form. It's key physics curriculum made approachable for all!.

Three young volunteers at the Metro City Science Museum discover they've actually volunteered for a great adventure after the museum's most prized exhibit is stolen by the evil Dr. Smasher. To recover it, they must use their knowledge of matter to survive an erupting volcano, operate a submarine, and ultimately outwit the wicked villain. Readers are invited to help fight crime, too, by learning about properties of matter and solving puzzles throughout this interactive adventure. This entertaining, high-interest volume, with its close ties to curricular content, is a motivating addition to any science collection.

Physical science can be a challenging topic for readers at any level, but this creative guide to physics breaks down essential concepts in a creative and accessible way. Text relating to forces and matter is presented in very short snippets, including bullet points, highlighted fun facts and statistics, and descriptions on diagrams. This is designed to help readers see that learning about science is anything but boring! Images play a large role in this learning experience, with information being presented in the form of graphic organizers, infographics, and a combination of illustrations and photographs.

Mae is fed up with her parents thinking her younger sister is a science genius, but as Mae learns that science is all about matter, which is all around us, she realizes that she can be a scientist too.

"Libby and her classmates are excited to welcome a new student into their classroom. When the ice cream for the welcome party melts, Libby is curious to see how the three states of matter can save the celebration. Experiment with Libby and find out!"--Publisher.

As liquid water, frozen ice, or steaming gas, water is still made of the same matter. But it acts very different in its different states. Learn the properties of each state of matter, what makes them change states, and more. It's key chemistry curriculum made approachable for all.

"In this interactive picture book, young readers squish, squeeze, and jiggle matter on the page, using their imagination to conduct simple lab experiments. They learn that matter comes in all shapes and sizes and can change from solid to liquid to gas. Back matter includes a real-world experiment for investigating matter"--Provided by the publisher.

"A book for young readers about the concepts of mass and weight and how they are a part of our everyday lives"--Provided by publisher.

"A book for young readers about the concept of flexibility and how it applies to things around them"--Provided by publisher.

Learning about the states of matter is a crucial part of any physical science curriculum. In this title, readers learn about the states-but also make slime, race marbles, and find out how heavy air is! Each fun experiment or activity begins with an explanation of the science concept being shown in the project. Clear step-by-step instructions guide readers through the set up and execution of the experiment. Most projects also include additional ideas to expand on the project, and some are marked as a great place to start work on a science fair project.
