Activity 1: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

States of Matter: Basics - Phase Changes

Heat, cool, and compress atoms and molecules and watch as they change between solid, liquid and gas phases. Pump more atoms and molecules into the system or change the temperature or volume of a container, and see a pressure-temperature diagram respond in real time. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Activity 2: Question Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

Matter Popper (Mid)

In this game you will knock down flying science equipment as you answer multiple-choice questions about the four states of matter and their properties. You will have a blast learning about the states of matter and what causes them to change! Your aiming skills will be put to the test in this game as you answer the questions.

Journey to the Sea (Mid) Deprecated

You are an ice cube on a journey to the ocean. Your path will provide obstacles along the way and you will have to change "states" in order to maneuver through the maze. Watch and decide whether you need to be a liquid, solid or gas to complete the journey. The journey ends when you reach the ocean. Where will the water molecule's journey go next?
