A story line (plot) that involves matter (changing states)
You must know the following words and how to use them correctly:
Matter

How each state of matter (solid, liquid, gas) has their particles arranged and how much energy they have. 

Project 1- Matter

Welcome to my class!!!! The first thing for us to do this year is something new. I would like for you to create a story/graphic novel/comic book about a superhero whose superpower is the ability to change states of matter. You have the ability to be as creative as you like. You will need to answer the following questions in order to make the book accurate. You will be getting your rubric and calendar soon. This will be done in addition to the normal classwork we will be doing as well. HEre are some links to resources, as well as the questions.
