Objectives- What are you
teaching?
(Student-centered: What will
students know and be able to do
after this lesson? Include the
ABCDs of objectives: action,
behavior, condition, and degree of
mastery, i.e., "C: Given a sentence
written in the past or present tense,
A: the student B: will be able to rewrite the sentence in future tense
Students will be able to recognize that matter comes in three different states; solid, liquid and gas.
Students will be able to classify different objects into different states of matter.
Students will be able to come up with their own examples of matter.
Linguistic Objective: Speech Emergence- Students will be able to describe the different types of matter
and their states.
Cultural Objective: Students will be able to find solids, liquids, and gases in their own homes.

Why are you
teaching it this way?
Why is it
important for students to learn
this concept?
Evaluation Plan- How will you
them better.
I am teaching it this way because it will help me get an understanding of what they know and it will
allow them to get familiar with the content in a way that they can relate it to their own daily lives.
It is important for students to learn this concept so that they can apply this knowledge to identify the
differences in matter.

know students have mastered
your objectives?
Formative Assessment:
- Walk around the classroom while students are working (circulate)
- I will ask students guided questions to find out what they know or if there are any misconceptions.
- Students will give a thumbs up if its a misconception or a thumbs down if its not a misconception.
- Students will share their answers either to the class or to their group/partner
- Having them write on their science journal about what they know about solids liquids and gases will
allow me to make a pre-assessment to see what needs to be talked about more.
Address the following:

formative evidence will you
use to document student
learning during this lesson?

questions to help lead them to understand that the air in the balloon is a gas
