MATTER Objectives: A t the end of the lesson, pupils will be able to;

1. Explain states of matter. 2. Classify the properties of solids, liquids and gases. 3. Experiment and observe some solids, liquids and gases. 4. Explain that gases are formed when liquids evaporate and that when a gas is cooled, it condenses to form a liquid. 5. Explain that gases move and flow more easily than liquids, and in all directions. 6. Explore how those gases differ from solids and liquids in that they do not maintain their shape and volume, but spread out to fill the space they are in.
