3.PS1: : Matter and Its Interactions

3.PS1.1: : Describe the properties of solids, liquids, and gases and identify that matter is made up of particles too small to be seen.

3.PS1.2: : Differentiate between changes caused by heating or cooling that can be reversed and that cannot.

3.PS1.3: : Describe and compare the physical properties of matter including color, texture, shape, length, mass, temperature, volume, state, hardness, and flexibility.

3.PS2: : Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions

3.PS2.1: : Explain the cause and effect relationship of magnets.

3.PS2.2: : Solve a problem by applying the use of the interactions between two magnets.

3.PS3: : Energy

3.PS3.3: : Evaluate how magnets cause changes in the motion and position of objects, even when the objects are not touching the magnet.
