instructions to create a one- page, three frame foldable to compare and contrast solids, liquids, and gases.

1. SOLID- LIQUID- GAS
Our foldables.

2. Foldable: finished.

3. Foldable: Step 1. Fold the paper
in half the “long way” (like a hot
dog)
fold fold

4. Foldable: Step 2. Fold the long
piece of paper into thirds.
SOLID LIQUID GAS

5. Foldable: Step 3. Make TWO
SHORT CUTS, only on the top
level of the foldable, to divided
the cover into 3 flaps.
SOLID LIQUID GAS

6. Foldable: finished.

7. Front of the foldable: Write the
word solid on the first flap, liquid
on the second flap, and gas on
the third flap.
SOLID LIQUID GAS

8. Front of the foldable: Under each
word, add a drawing of
something in that state.
SOLID LIQUID GAS

9. Research online:
solids, liquids, gases.
 Google: characteristics of solids, liquids, and gases
 A great site to choose is the one from Purdue:

s/character.html

10. Inside the foldable, give
information about
shape, volume, motion, color,
and temperature of water in
each state.
(Notice – the information is not in
the same order as your foldables
headings!!!)

11. Information under EACH FLAP

12. Check your neighbor: Is your
work high- quality?
