matter: anything that has weight and takes up space; solid, liquid, or gas
measure: to find the size, weight, or mass of an object
chemical change: a process where elements or compounds change to form different elements or compounds.
mixture: the combination of two or more elements or compounds which do not combine chemically.
phases of matter: the form of a substance which can be a solid, a liquid, or a gas. Plasma may also be discussed as a state/phase of matter.
physical change: a change in which the particles of the material are rearranged but not
altered, although its shape and size may be changed
solution: a mixture of two or more substances in which the particles involved are atoms, ions, or molecules

Helpful websites for this unit:
Geography4kids – Excellent website that explores a wide variety of topics from standard S5E1. Simple, easy to read text, and supporting graphics make this a great site for students to read and conduct research. National Geographic Forces of Nature – Quality, media enhanced online activities that illustrate the forces of volcanoes and earthquakes. Includes atomospheric hurricanes and tornadoes. http://www.geography4kids.com/map.html
Can we predict volcanoes- http://www.learner.org/interactives/volcanoes/entry.html
NOVA – Earth – Directory webpage from NOVA that includes opportunities to for students to read and interact with some of the most dramatic landforms and forces that shape the earth. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/archive/int_eart.html
