Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Zippy art and clear explanations introduce the basic characteristics of four states of matter and how they change from one state to another. Totally up-to-date, this book for elementary school children includes plasma, now covered in all curricula.
Straightforward text presents the facts and Raff's infographic illustrations demonstrate the science and tell a humorous story. There are hands-on activities, such as using a chocolate bar to demonstrate material consistency and using a balloon to prove gases have weight, to reinforce the learning. A glossary defines density, plasma, vapor, and more essential terms.
Ages 7-10.
Grades 4 to 6.
"Two children learn about four different states of matter (solid, liquid, gas, and plasma) and what happens when matter changes form."-- Provided by publisher.
