“Create a study guide for 4th grade students in English and in Spanish to be able to study along with their parents with different types of activities such as Cloze passages, graphic organizers, or match the word with the definition of the following information States of matter. States of matter are 4: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. How are molecules in these 4 states. In solids they are closely together. Liquids are a little bit separated and gases are very separated. Solids have a definite shape and liquids have an indefinite shape and definite volume; gases have an indefinite shape and an indefinite volume. Mass is anything that occupies space. Mass is measured in grams and kilograms. We use a balance scale to measure mass. Volume is a liquid that occupies space. Liquids are measured in liters and mililiters and we can use graduated cylinders to do it. Magnets attract anything made out of metal or iron. Their name comes from the mineral, Magnetite. All magnets create a magnetic field. They have 2 poles, a positive and a negative pole. When 2 poles are different they attract and when they the same they repel. Density has a relationship with floatability. Density is how tightly packed are the molecules and floatability is just the ability of an object to sink or float. For example, a bowling ball sink due to its high density and a soccer ball floats to its low density. Temperature is how hot or how cold something is. Temperature is measured in degree Farenheit or in degrees Celsius. Degrees Celsius are used all around the world, the only country that uses degrees Farenheit is the United States. Also, all around the world they use the metric system, meaning the usage of centimeters, meters, grams, kilograms and the United States and 2 other countries around the world are do not use this system. The smaller the number of temperature, the colder it is and the greater the number in temperature, the hotter it is. Now, density in liquids is similar to density in objects. With the liquids the higher their density is the more they will sink in water or another liquid. The less dense a liquid is, it will tend to sink less in a liquid such as water or maybe even rise all the way to the top. Example, in a density where these 3 liquids are poured in, dish soap, water, and rubbing alcohol. The dish soap sinks completely, the rubbing alcohol floats to the top since its so light, and the water stays in the middle. Mixtures and solutions. A mixture is something that has 2 or more things that can be easily separated and a solution is also 2 or more thing but that cannot be easily separated. Examples of mixtures are trail mix, cereal with milk, and a fruit salad; while solutions can soda, lemonade, and Gatorade. Solvents and solutions. A solvent is a liquid that dissolves a type of powder. Examples of solvents are water and milk; you can dissolve sugar in water and we can dissolve chocolate powder in milk. Now, a solute is something that gets dissolved in a liquid like the chocolate powder or sugar.”
