Solids Liquids and Gas

https://www.sciencelearn.org.nz/images/1839-three-states-of-matter



The three most common states of matter are solid, liquid, and gas. First it starts as a solid. A solid is the part of matter when theirs almost no energy and the energy particles are clumped together. Solids have a definite size and shape. Then when the energy particles get farther apart they move faster and faster then it turns into a liquid. This process is called Melting. 
     Once the solid has melted it turns into a liquid. A liquid is the state of matter where the energy particles are still close but not as close to each other as the solid was and they are moving faster and getting faster as they move away from each other. A liquid takes the shape of it's container. Then when the energy particles start moving farther and farther away they get faster and faster. Then the energy particles get so fast and so far away that they turn into a Gas. This process is called Evaporation.

I explained the three states of mater through my work when I took notes and did a worksheet on the three states of matter and their differences and similarities.  I explained the three states of matter also when explained what they did and how they moved through the exercise / movements on how it would be to be the particles in these three states of matter.

My Superhero



We made superhero's in our science to explain genetics. First we choose an animal with super powers. Like a flying squirrels ability to fly. Then we created our first super hero off of the animals abilities. We had to come up with a name, their powers, what they looked like, an origin story, their environment and epigenetics. Then we had to mate them with a super villain and make a baby then we had to find out what the babies name, powers, outfit, and genes would be. Then we had to make a villain side of our superhero and had to give it a name, change 4 body systems and write their powers, origin, and about the body systems we choose.



Backwards looking:

I didn't now much about the subject of superheros and genetics before I did this project. I did know somethings about genetics and super hero but they were just small and mostly the basics. I think that I definitely could have known a lot more as a whole to begin with but I think that I knew enough to make it through the project

Inward Looking:

I feel really good about my finished project and I really like what I did for my superhero and I really like the fact that we had lost of times do I could prefect it. I really like my  villain because it mirrors my superhero but sense the body system changed it has more powers and it stronger. What I don't care for though is my epigenetics. I don't like this because I feel I could have done better on it.

Outward looking:

If I were to give this a grade I would give it an A because it has some good work in it and it meets and exceeds all of the expectations. But I wouldn't give it an A+ because some of the stuff only meets the expectation. I would also give it an A because it has at least all of the needed things and has over a paragraph for

Forward looking:

Is there life in Space?
