Solids, Liquids, Gases also relating to Changes - 1st Grade and 2nd Grade
http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/scienceclips/ages/8_9/science_8_9.shtml - Great activity that shows that different solids melt at different temperatures. Cool quiz at the end too.
http://www.sciencekids.co.nz/gamesactivities/gases.html - Categorize different states of matter into solids, liquids, and gases.
http://www.sciencekids.co.nz/gamesactivities/materialproperties.html - Shows that different solids can hold different properties even though they are all considered the same state of matter
http://studyjams.scholastic.com/studyjams/jams/science/matter/solids-liquids-gases.htm - Great site that shows student a video about the states of matter, includes a fun song about states of matter, and has a quiz assessing student knowledge. Great resource!

- Use the sound ruler to discover which
sounds are too loud and can damage your hearing
http://www.lawrencehallofscience.org/kidsite/portfolio/whale-sounds/ Whale Sounds - Try to identify which whale makes which sound, then match
the oscilloscope pattern to the sounds.
http://www.exploratorium.edu/listen/online_activities.php - Great
sound activities that can be done online and at home!
http://www.questacon.edu.au/outreach/programs/science-circus/activities/humming-hangers -
Musical Coathanger - Discover how sound
travels through solids and liquids with these two experiments.

- What’s in a Wave? - Learn how
sound helps submarines see underwater and helps doctors study the heart. Then
try controlling a submarine using sonar to see.

- Tons!!! of sound activities and wonderful information on sound.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/scienceclips/ages/7_8/magnets_springs.shtml - Discover which materials are magnetic and which are not with this fun, online experiment.
Make a game out of this simulation by trying to hit a
target. This tool is brought to us by The PhET Project
and made possible by the Kavli
Operating Institute.

- The unique & clever "learning tool" is called Galileo Drops the Ball. Around
1590 Galileo Galilei climbed up the Leaning Tower of Pisa and dropped some
balls to the ground. Two balls of different masses, but of similar shape &
density that were released together hit the ground at the same time. Find
out for yourself what a happens. This interactive was developed by the Schlumberger Excellence in Educational
Development group. Be sure to visit their other interactives at their Science Lab.

- The name of this clever "learning tool" is called Speed,
Eggs and Slam. In this interactive lesson students find a way, through
trial and error, to stop an egg from breaking in the back of a pick up truck.
The truck is on an inclined plane ready to foil the student efforts. This is
brought to us by the tremendous site called TryScience.
