Transformations of Matter Unit

The goal for this week is for students to be able to explain understand state changes, exothermic/endothermic reactions and melting point boiling Point graphs.  We also be examining the difference between atoms, molecules, symbols, structures, formula and equations.

Mr. Price will have a “shadow” this week!  Randall, an 11th grade student at Four Rivers Public Charter School, will be observing Science classes on Tuesday and Thursday to see what teaching Middle School Science is like.
