What is matter? Anything that takes up space is matter. Matter can be a water, liquid, or gas. These are the states of matter. Learn about matter with this science reader that features easy-to-read text. Nonfiction text features include a glossary, index, and detailed images to facilitate close reading and help students connect back to the text. Aligned to state and national standards, the book also includes a fun and engaging science experiment to develop critical thinking and help students practice what they have learned.

You don't have to be a rocket scientist to understand matter and energy with our Physical Science 3-book BUNDLE. Students discover what matter is with Properties of Matter. Identify atoms, particles and molecules before exploring the three states of matter. Experiment with photosynthesis, an important chemical change. Then, explore the invisible world of Atoms, Molecules and Elements. See how the atomic model is made up of electrons, protons and neutrons. Get comfortable with the periodic table by recognizing each element as part of a group. Finally, unlock the mysteries of Energy. Dissect mechanical energy by identifying the different points on a roller coaster as using kinetic or potential energy. Measure the speed of sound in a group experiment. Each concept is paired with hands-on activities and experiments. Aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards and written to Bloom's Taxonomy and STEAM initiatives, additional crossword, word search, comprehension quiz and answer key are also included.

Richard Gordon maps out new territory in the rarely explored intersection of science and spirituality in this fascinating investigation of the profound relationship between matter and consciousness. Building on the Quantum-Touch technique he developed in previous books, Gordon explains how the hands-on energy healing technique that he uses to help to alleviate nerve pain, headaches, back pain, hip pain, TMJ, and more provides a unique window onto the secret nature of matter. He explains how, by examining pelvic and occipital torsion, and then aligning people without the use of touch or suggestion, he is able to run a wide range of simple experiments that challenge many dogmas of science. This book teaches readers the technique along with 57 easy-to-reproduce experiments that allow them to test the results. These experiments clearly demonstrate that our consciousness can profoundly influence matter, and that an object charged with energy and intent can dramatically affect us physiologically in seconds.

Chemical education is essential to everybody because it deals with ideas that play major roles in personal, social, and economic decisions. This book is based on three principles: that all aspects of chemical education should be associated with research; that the development of opportunities for chemical education should be both a continuous process and be linked to research; and that the professional development of all those associated with chemical education should make extensive and diverse use of that research. It is intended for: pre-service and practising chemistry teachers and lecturers; chemistry teacher educators; chemical education researchers; the designers and managers of formal chemical curricula; informal chemical educators; authors of textbooks and curriculum support materials; practising chemists and chemical technologists. It addresses: the relation between chemistry and chemical education; curricula for chemical education; teaching and learning about chemical compounds and chemical change; the development of teachers; the development of chemical education as a field of enquiry. This is mainly done in respect of the full range of formal education contexts (schools, universities, vocational colleges) but also in respect of informal education contexts (books, science centres and museums).
