Books with title Sólidos, líquidos y gases/Solids, Liquids, and Gases

Solids, Liquids and Gases has 13 experiments carefully chosen by the Ontario Science Centre. With minimal supervision, children can explore the three states of matter, what makes each state unique and how matter changes from a solid to a liquid to a gas through evaporation, condensation, melting and freezing. Filled with bright photographs, the Starting with Science series provides valuable lessons about basic science for five to eight year olds.

Explore physics in this early introduction to the states of matter, starring a goofy dog and his all-too-human family. Zippy art and clear explanations introduce the basic characteristics of four states of matter and how they change from one state to another. Totally up-to-date, this book for elementary school children includes plasma, now covered in all curricula. Straightforward text presents the facts and Raff's infographic illustrations demonstrate the science and tell a humorous story. There are hands-on activities, such as using a chocolate bar to demonstrate material consistency and using a balloon to prove gases have weight, to reinforce the learning. A glossary defines density, plasma, vapor, and more essential terms.

- Includes very basic science facts for early elementary readers.- Simple language patterns help emergent readers master the text.- Format includes large color photographs, easy-to-read font, and simple interior design.- Photographs are directly related to the text.- Includes index and a word list.Grades K-4 National Science Standards- Science As Inquiry: I- Abilities necessary to do scientific inquiry- Form questions about objects, organisms, and events in the environment- Conduct investigations- Physical Science: II- Properties of objects and materials- Materials can exist in different states--solid, liquid, and gas. Some common materials, such as water, can be changed from one state to another by heating or cooling.
