Physical/Chemical Changes: 5th grade

The 5th grade class as VHMS has been busy this year learning the different tools, lab rules & expectations of a Science class.  They have learned how to read a ruler, measure mass with a triple beam balance, and read a graduated cylinder for volume.  We are putting it all together in this unit of Changes in Matter.  In this guided lab, they are observing both physical & chemical changes while making smores.
