LESSON RATIONALE
The students need to learn the standard 2.PS.3 because there are many solids, liquids, and gases
that can and cannot be reversed by heating and cooling. As the students begin to learn how to
cook and become more self-sufficient, they will need to know how the heat and coolness can
overall effect a solid, liquid, or gas. Solids, liquids, and gases are a daily occurrence in
everyone’s life. Whether that has to do with the weather, food, or cooking. There are many
connections made with this standard, and with knowledge on this, the students will be able to
strengthen their knowledge and understanding of those solids, liquids, and gases.
READINESS
I. Goals/Objectives/Standard(s)
A. Goal(s)—The students will be able to describe how heat and cold effect solids, liquids,
and gases.
B. Objective(s)—
- After completing the experiment, the students will be able to explain how heating and cooling
solids, liquids, and gases can be reversed.
- After completing the experiment, the students will be able to explain how heating and cooling
solids, liquids, and gases cannot be reversed.
C. Standard(s):
2.PS.3 Construct an argument with evidence that some changes caused by heating and cooling
can be reversed and some cannot.
SEPS.3 Constructing and Performing Investigations: (Scientists and engineers are constructing
and performing investigations in the field or laboratory, working collaboratively as well as
individually. Researching analogous problems in order to gain insight into possible solutions
allows them to make conjectures about the form and meaning of the solution. A plan to a
solution pathway is developed prior to constructing and performing investigations. Constructing
investigations systematically encompasses identified variables and parameters generating quality
data. While performing, scientists and engineers monitor and record progress. After performing,
they evaluate to make changes to modify and repeat the investigation if necessary.)

II. Management Plan-
Time Management:
1 hour (1:00-2:00)
Materials: iPads, pencils, worksheets, assessment sheet, station materials (crayons, water, ice,
blow dryer, hot plate, freezer/fridge…)
*back-up plan if someone is unable to follow procedures and expectations.
Expectations/Procedures: The students will be expected to follow the rules that Mrs. Satterlee
already has in place. They will also be expected to follow directions at each station and complete
the activities given to them with the help of an educator or on their own.
IV. Purpose: Today we are going to be learning about how it can be reversible and irreversible
when we add heat and coolness to solids, liquids, and gases! Every day we come into
contact with solids, liquids, and gases; we need to know how temperature can affect the
overall outcome for these 3 states of matter!

activities to connect to the students so they would be motivated to complete the
assignment.
- There is a student who shuts down when he does not understand the material or it
is more difficult to complete a task: I implemented stations so that every student
will get to “rotate” what they have to do. Therefore, if something is difficult for
him or another student, there are multiple ways implemented in the lesson to
collaborate, ask questions, and participate.
- There are 3 ELL students in this 2nd grade class: there will be verbal and written
directions for each activity they are to do; Mrs. Satterlee is also the ELL school
teacher, so if they do not understand she would be able to explain it in Spanish.

Heating and cooling solids, liquids, and gases effects their
overall shape. We are going to explore today how these
temperatures can sometimes completely change matter and how
it can be reversed or not reversed.
Transition 30 seconds N/A Walk back to your seats.
Explore 30 minutes Room There will be multiple stations around the room set up for the
students to explore every 5 minutes and fill out their paper.
They will travel in their seat groups. (6 groups total)
Each station will have an adult present demonstrating the
experiment and the students watching and even participating.
Stations:
1. Crayons—blow dryer will blow on the crayons for a little
until they begin to melt. (solid à liquid à solid)
2. Ice—put into cold, warm, hot water (liquid)
3. Water—put water on hot plate (gas) *or finger instead of hot
plate
4. Washcloth—put into bag and seal it (condensation)
5. Liquid to solid—freezer (pre-made frozen to show result)
6. gas à liquid—jar with hot water (condensation à liquid)
Transition 30 seconds N/A Walk and find a partner.
Communicate 5 minutes Room It is very important for a scientist, you all, to share what you
Findings found to be true today. Sharing your findings will help others to
learn more and understand better about how heating and
cooling water can affect the overall shape, and even make it a
different state of matter. I would like you to find someone in the
room that is around the same height as you and share what you
found in your experiment today. Go.
Closure 5 minutes Seats Have the students return to their seats.
Ask the students:
Have the students talk with group/shoulder partner before asking
someone to share.
I would like for you to turn to your shoulder partner and share
one thing you learned today.
Can anyone share with the whole class what they learned today?
Does anyone remember WHY I said this is important to learn? I
talked about it earlier.
-Go back to purpose statement.
What happens when solids, liquids, and gases are met with
heat? *Particles
Cold?
I love all of your answers, it sounds like you all learned
something today! I am going to collect your recording sheets
and look over them. I am excited to see what you all wrote
down!

c. I will walk around during the experiment and see who is participating and
understanding.
d. With closure, I will observe participation while I ask questions.
e. Finished assessments will let me know who is understanding and who needs more
instruction (immediate feedback).
f. I will fill out the assessment observation sheet.
Formative—
There is an assessment observation worksheet Mrs. Satterlee has given me to fill out (picture
attached)
I will walk around the room and check for understanding by listening to the students’
conversations and observing their participation.
I will collect their recording sheet at the end of the class period and read over them; looking for
who is understanding and who needs more help.
Summative—
There will be an end of unit test given to the students from Mrs. Satterlee.

The candidate seeks appropriate ways to evaluate and employ technological tools, resources,
and skills as they apply to specific content and pedagogical knowledge, assessment practices,
and student achievement. The selection of appropriate technological tools reflects the
candidate’s ability to make sound instructional decisions that enable all students to achieve the
expected outcomes. InTASC Standard 7
