In Mrs. Rodriguez’s Science Resource class at Morningside Elementary, students are diving into an engaging hands-on investigation of the properties and states of matter. Working collaboratively, they explore how different materials compare in both volume and mass by using a variety of measurement tools and recording their data. Students practice scientific skills with instruments such as graduated cylinders for measuring liquid volume, triple-beam balances and digital scales for determining mass, and beakers and measuring cups to observe changes and record precise measurements. This interactive approach allows learners to connect scientific concepts to real-world applications, deepen their understanding, and build confidence as young scientists.
