Teaching Tip:
This mini-lesson and activity(s) meets the following science standard(s):• Std 8, Lvl I, Benchmark 1: Knows that different objects are made up of many different types of materials (e.g., cloth, paper, wood, metal) and have many different observable properties (e.g., color, size, shape, and weight) Std 8, Lvl I, Benchmark 2: Knows that things can be done to materials to change some of their properties (e.g., heating, freezing, mixing, cutting, dissolving, bending), but not all materials respond the same way to what is done to them
