Chapter 4 – States of Matter Presentations
Due Monday 12/19
You are learning about the states of matter.  It is your group’s job to master your content area.  You will read various books about your section in the textbook and research your content on the internet. 

Focus points: movement/motion of molecules, examples in our daily lives, how they affect us.

Each group will make:
1.  A visual presentation of their material: make a slideshow/PowerPoint and/or a display board; use physical examples such as a demonstration, a mini-lab, etc. (The physical examples can be done at home; just take pictures and add them to your presentation.)
2. A written summary of their subject matter; one page typed (~250 words, max. 300).  Each group member will attach their contribution to the final paper. I will collect each person's rough draft AND the final paper.  
Your paper should consist of the following: summary of your presentation, how this affects us in life, real world examples, molecular motion, how this is related to what we have already learned in class, i.e. energy
3. Three test questions about their material

Each person must contribute to their presentations; failure to do so will result in the group losing a letter grade.

Group 1 – Solids
Group 2 – Liquids
Group 3 – Gases
Group 4 – Solids ßàLiquids (melting/freezing)
Group 5 – Liquids ßà Gasses (evaporation/condensation)
Group 6 – What is Matter? States of Matter Graph
Group 7 – Density
Group 8 – Heat, Temperature, and Thermometers

  4. hi mr.c umm jasmine and joan are doing the same project but different experiment from me because on friday they gave me the display board and they were telling me that they can't come and help me. so i told them that i dont want to do all of the work by myself and that if did i dont want them to get all of the credit so im gona do it alone. then thats when they started telling me that they wanted to help me. but by that time i had already bought a new display baord and had almost finished. so i told them that i was gona give it back to them so they could do a seperate baord. thats all i wanted to tell you, that we have seperate boards.
