Lesson Title and Brief Summary

Introduction to matter The students learn what matter is and define solids, liquids, and gases.

Physical properties of matter observation

The students sort the objects according to their sizes, shapes, colours, and textures .

Mass and volume

The size of containers and the weight of various objects are measured by students using a balance.

Changing states of matter

The students can see the effects of heating and or cooling of matter (e.g., boiling water, melting ice).

Matter Scavenger Hunt and Review

The students practice their learning through a scavenger hunt and a reflective exercise with the group.

National/State Standard(s)

Mississippi CCRS Science Standard: P.2.5A –The students will be able to demonstrate that they have learnt about the observable properties of matter and how matter reacts to changes in energy (NGSS Lead States, 2013).

Learning Objectives

The students will examine the definition of matter and the states of matter.

Students will be sorting and describing materials based on visible physical properties.

The students will measure the mass and volume of different objects and compare them.

Students will elaborate on the effect of heat, which can convert a matter to a different state.

The students will use knowledge to categorize materials and describe how matter changes.

Three-Dimensional Learning

Science & Engineering Practices (SEP): Developing and Carrying out Investigations; Gathering and Improving Consuming Information.

Crosscutting Concepts (CCC): Patterns; cause and effect.

Disciplinary Core Ideas (DCI): Structure and properties of matter; changes of states of matter.

Formative Assessment

Think, pair, share. What is the matter? Organize materials in the classroom by type of matter.

Activity: Object sorting with an exit slip that asks the students to describe the properties.

Exit ticket: What is more massive? Why?” Short write-up.

What did we destroy with the ice?

Group Q&A session and individual review sheet.

Summative Assessment

In the form of a practical performance assignment, the students are going to categorize unfamiliar objects concerning the physical criteria and define the impact of hot or cold on a selected object (Cox, n.d). Observation skills, accuracy of classification, and knowledge of state changes will be evaluated with the help of a rubric.

Differentiation of Assessments

Student IEPs or ELL needs will be considered by providing appropriate visual prompts, simplified instructions, and the use of sentence frames and group practice. The more advanced students will do extension questions. Checklists and oral evaluations will also support the variety of learning needs.

Topic 2 Reflection

Backward design of this Grade 2 unit on Properties of Matter allowed me to tie together objectives, assessments, and standards in a way that led to a greater understanding of the task at hand. It guaranteed purposeful planning and significant learning experiences that benefit various learners with a strong focus on observation, labeling, and applying real-world scientific practices (Koch, 2018).
