A fun and easy science experiment for teaching students the difference between a solid, liquid, and gas! This engaging activity uses a plastic water bottle, water, a balloon, and Alka-Seltzer tablets to demonstrate the states of matter in an exciting way. Watch as the reaction inflates the balloon and download a free printable page to enhance the learning experience. Plus, explore an additional Alka-Seltzer Snow Experiment and find more science and STEM ideas for the entire school year.

A fun and easy properties of matter cracker lab where students use their senses to observe, describe and then taste the physical properties of crackers.

We started off our week exploring the different states of matter... solid, liquid, and gas. During our science lab, I filled Ziploc bags with a solid object (toy car), a liquid (water) and a gas (air). We talked about how a solid object keeps its shape, a liquid takes the shape of its container, and a gas fills the space it is in. We passed the bags around and the students got to feel each of he bags, compare each of the states of matter, and turn and talk about the properties of matter they…
