Changes in States of Matter Foldable
This foldable is designed to help students understand what changes in states of matter are, to recognize why changes occur and to identify four common changes (i.e. freezing, evaporation, melting and condensation). I recommend having students fill in the foldable following a lesson on this topic to consolidate their learning. The foldable can then be glued into the students' science notebooks to be used for future reference.
In this file you will find three versions of the foldable.
