What Can Water Do? LOWER PRIMARY Prep to Year 3

AT A GLANCE

In this lesson, students will develop their understanding of the properties of water by carrying out four tasks to investigate how water can exist in the three states of matter—as a solid, liquid or gas. In each task, students will engage in the processes of predicting, observing, and explaining.

Water occurs as a solid Liquid to solid nearer to the earth’s poles or at great heights. Ice forms when water molecules stop moving and form crystals Allow at least 24 hours after placing water in freezer. (at temperatures below 0 degrees Celsius). EXPERIMENT 2 An interesting feature of ice is that it floats (ice is Solid to liquid lighter than liquid water). This is because it is actually 10-15 minutes for melting ice less dense than its liquid form (ie. Water expands as it (depending on outside temperature). freezes); most solids are more dense than their liquid form and they sink. EXPERIMENT 3 WATER LIQUID Liquid to gas Water is most commonly found as a liquid. Water 10-15 minutes occurs as a liquid in rivers, lakes and the ocean. Water EXPERIMENT 4 turns to a liquid at temperatures higher than 0 degrees Celsius and lower than 100 degrees Celsius. Liquid to gas #2 As a liquid, Water molecules are moving around freely 10 minutes (have more energy). Liquid water will follow gravity and fills up the container that it’s in, from the bottom up.

Like any other substance, water can be in a solid, liquid or gas form - which we call different states of matter. The amount of water vapour in the air is measured This set of experiments helps student understand the as humidity. The higher the humidity the more water effect of temperature on changing water into vapour in the air. In summer Cairns often has a different states. humidity level greater than 70%.
