Matter is anything that you can touch physically.We point to several objects around the classroom saying "this is matter". We talk about matter is anything that takes up space, I explained to them that all the matter on earth is in 3 states: solid, liquid and gas. We have the matter tray that contains 3 objects a jar with water representing liquid, an empty jar representing gas and a little container with rocks representing solid. Each container is label solid, liquid and gas. Point to the label solid and say this rock is solid, let the kids touch and feel the rocks and look at them and repeat the same steps with gas and liquid. Bug was fascinated about solid and liquid, she repeat those words all they long and she even make a presentation to her older brother N.

Introduction to liquids :
Water is liquid matter, liquids have 3 main properties:
- Liquid does not have a definite shape. (using different shape jars fill with water) explain L and bug that it doesn't matter what liquid is inside each container, the liquid take the shape of it's container. Pass the container around and fed their curiosity .
- Liquid does not have a definite volume.
