Lesson 4 - Solids
Introduction
Solids are made up of particles that are so tightly packed together that they can't move around freely. Since they're stuck in place, their shape usually stays the same. The easiest way to identify a solid is by checking to see if it's hard and has its own shape.
Solids include things like rocks and ice. Don't be confused by things like sand and clay, which may not look like solids but actually are. Sand is just made up of very small pieces of solids, and when clay is left alone, it remains in its shape until molded.

In your Science Journal:
-
- Write down today’s Lesson Title at the top of your next Journal page.
- Write today’s learning objective on the first line.
- Explore the Module 7 - Lesson 4 presentation below. Today, we’ll learn about the last state of matter - solids. We’ll be exploring a Google Slides presentation. It is a presentation that will help introduce you to the idea of the solids and their characteristics.
- Write down the important terms and their definitions and important diagrams (yellow boxes) in your Science Journal
Video
Today, we are going to watch a video to learn that things can sometimes behave like a solid, and sometimes like a liquid depending on how much force is applied to them.
