Who We Are
1. REWRITE THE STANDARD IN YOUR OWN WORDS. HOW DOES THE ASSIGNMENT RELATE TO THE STANDARD?
|
Standard: 3e. I know that in solids the atoms are closely locked in position and can only vibrate; in liquids the atoms and molecules are more loosely connected & can collide with and move past one another; and in gases the atoms and molecules are free to move independently, colliding frequently. This standard means that I understand how the movements in atoms work. I understand the difference between solid, liquid and gas.

2. WHAT STEPS DID YOU TAKE TO COMPLETE THE ASSIGNMENT? |
At first we got a paper and used our notes to see the differences between the molecule movements in solids, liquids, and gases. For the section for solids, I used 6 cheerios compacted together to represent a solid. For the liquid, I put the cheerios a little further apart. Lastly, for the gas section, I put 3 pieces of cheerios as far apart as possible to show fast and free movement between the molecules.

|
This assignment demonstrates that I know the differences between the molecule movements of solids, liquids, and gases. It also demonstrates that I have the strength to show an example of those 3 things.

|
I could have improved my work on this assignment by using liquid glue. I used the solid type of glue so the pieces of cheerios kept on falling apart.

5. How will you apply the skills you learned from this assignment in the real world, as an adult or in other classes while you are still a student?
|
An example of this skill in the real world is ice melting into water. When the object is ice, it is a solid. However, if you leave the ice outside, it will melt into a liquid form. This skill can be used in the real world by teaching children this. Some may be curious of the differences on solids, liquids, and gases.
