Make a 4-page booklet to show your understanding of solids, liquids, and gases.

Page 1: Cover page. Neatly print the title of your project in fancy letters. Also write your name, homeroom - grade, and
the date. Draw and color a picture on the cover too.

Page 2: Solids page. On the bottom-half of the page neatly write or type the characteristics of solid
matter. Then, search through old magazines and newspapers for pictures of solid matter.
Cut out the pictures and neatly glue them to the page. Label each picture. You should
include 5 or more pictures of solid matter.

Page 3: Liquids page. On the bottom-half of the page neatly write or type the characteristics of
liquid matter. Then, search through old magazines and newspapers for pictures of liquid
matter and attach them to the page and label. You should include 5 or more pictures of
liquid matter.

Page 4: Gases page. On the bottom-half of the page neatly write or type the characteristics of
gas matter. Then, search through old magazines and newspapers for pictures of gases (or
things filled with gases, like balloons or tires). Attach the pictures to the page and label. You
should include 5 or more pictures of gases.



Combine your pages into a neat-looking booklet and staple them together.
Your project may be on display at school, so do your very best work!
