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
