During physical science, students explored the states of matter through a hands-on lab using dry ice. Student observed dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) change state when energy is added or removed. Students watched dry ice sublimate directly from a solid to a gas, compared what happens when it’s placed in water and soapy water, and observed how gas particles behave when trapped in a flask. Students measured temperature changes, recorded detailed observations, and connected what they saw to particle motion in solids, liquids, and gases. This lab helped students distinguish between physical changes and chemical changes, reinforce safety practices in the lab, and apply real-world examples to abstract concepts like particle spacing and energy transfer.

During 8th grade Physical Science, students witnessed a combustion reaction up close during their first class back for the second semester! Mrs Scott placed a sparkler through a chicken egg and then ignited the sparkler. Students observed how a combustion reaction releases energy in the form of heat and light. The sparkler’s intense heat showed how combustion requires fuel, oxygen, and heat, and how that energy transfer can cause physical and chemical changes to materials around it. The egg was a perfect real-world example of how heat from a combustion reaction. Students then came inside and discussed how oxygen was still being created inside the egg as the sparkler continued to move through the egg.
