PS: Physical Science
PS.1: develop a model to communicate that matter is made of particles too small to be seen
Phase Changes
Phases of Water
PS.2: measure and graph quantities to provide evidence that the total mass of matter is conserved regardless of the type of change that occurs when heating, cooling, or mixing substances
