Features: The learning outcome assessment methods in this book can fully and intuitively reflect what children have learned. The rich and diverse classroom activities and the expandable teaching mindset integrate science experiences with mathematics, art, literature, and social studies organically. Healthy and beneficial science activities can also involve the entire family, making learning fun. Looking out, around, and then at the children sitting in the classroom, every object within your sight is made of matter. Solids, liquids, and even gases can all form matter. The focus of this unit is on the most common form of matter that children encounter in their daily lives: solids. Solids are used in many aspects of our lives. Over the centuries, people have discovered many of its characteristics through experiments and observations. In the following activities, children will further explore the knowledge of solids through experiments and better understand the different forms of matter and the ways in which they transform. During the activities, children may encounter some phenomena that even the most knowledgeable children in science may not fully understand. However, these phenomena will instead motivate children to observe more carefully, ask questions, and find answers.
